When the Music Stopped

Growing up in Brooklyn, Sonia Pérez recalled how her father would drink beer, sit on the sofa and lose himself in records from Puerto Rico, where he grew up. One day, he stopped listening. Sonia and her siblings wondered why.

Today, two stories about a parent and child longing for a deeper connection – and how music sparked their understanding of one another.
