Inside was a folded piece of silver paper with gold foil edges to match the envelope. With a few gentle tugs, Melody slipped out her first piece of mail.

The Battyville Elite School For Musically Gifted Children’s Annual Debut Gala

Dear Miss Trumpet, It is with the greatest pleasure that we request your presence at our upcoming Debut Gala in Crescendo Hall. We would be delighted if you would make your debut at the Battyville Elite School For Musically Gifted Children on the first evening of spring by performing a solo piece of your choosing. Not only would you headline the Debut Gala, but the event will be a celebration of your family’s enormous successes. The Prince and Princess of Zanjia will also be in attendance as our special guests to witness you, the heir of the extraordinary Viola and Barry T Trumpet, take your rightful place on stage. The evening is sure to be a highlight for the school and our entire community. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Your principal, Allegra F Sharp
