Sonny's Blues
Reread the last four paragraphs and explain the significance of the statement "Now these are sonny's blues." How has Sonny made this music his own?

When Sonny takes the narrator to the nightclub to hear him play, the narrator comes to realize that his brother has learned to fuel his music with the pain of his past. The music belongs to Sonny.... and to those who've suffered alongside him. The narrator comes to see that in undertsnading his brother, he has come to understand himself.
