The size and colour of the stars depend upon the number of connections the musician made over their lifetime. Those who taught few reside around the edges, whilst the greatest teachers cluster around the centre. Everything is connected. The brightest star at the moment is Nadia Boulanger, who single-handedly changed the face of modern music, teaching musicians by the likes of Philip Glass, Daniel Barenboim and Aaron Copland.
