In this dream, you arrive at the old church that’s just down the street from where you used to live. This is your first time inside. You are expected to play hymns with the accordion you find strapped to your back. You set up in front of the congregation that is just arriving, smelling of cake and Bretzel. The sheets of musical notation are a beautiful jumble of lines and notes and birds and symbols. You are surprised to find that you not only understand the notation but also that you can play. Everyone is singing along, transported by the music you are making.
