ith my formal evening gown that tralled out behind me just like a wedding dress. The first chord rang through the auditorium, and my nervousness was forgotten. Every note sang melodic perfection. Finally, I finished. Forgetting about my long dress, I pushed the piano bench out excitedly, which created a tangled mess of dress and piano bench legs. Suddenly, I was lying on the stage with my feet straight in the air. Quickly, I jumped up and took a bow while the crowd applauded wildly. Walking offstage, I couldn't stop smiling, knowing it was a night I would never forget. Which statement best describes the theme or author's purpose of this text? A.
