Who is Aunt Georgiana?

  • Aunt Georgiana is the narrator's aunt in "A Wagner Matinee." She had been a music teacher in Boston before leaving her whole life behind in order to marry the man she loved.
  • She lives now in Nebraska, where her pioneering lifestyle has taken most of her opportunity to listen to and play music away. The tough chores life at the countryside impose on her seem to have changed her.

Does Aunt Georgiana miss music?

  • She does, a lot. And that is clearly shown by her reactions at the concert her nephew takes her too. Even though she did not seem to care or to even realize where she was at first, once the music started, everything changed.
  • Aunt Georgiana's eyes fill with tears, and her fingers can't help but move to the sound of the music she herself once played. She remains quiet, as if moving would suddenly take that beautiful music away from.
  • She also tells Clark, her nephew, to not let anyone take music away from him. If he should lose something, let it not be music. And that reveals how much she misses music and how sad she is that her new life has taken it from her.

With the information above in mind, we can choose options A, B, and C as the correct ones.
