in search of a story

Many years ago, when I was an insatiable consumer of science fiction, I read a short story in which a human being was temporarily given the ability to experience a performance given by aliens—but the caveat was that the ability was temporary, and could never again be experienced. I believe it was an Isaac Asimov story, but I’m not 100% sure.

Does this ring a bell with anyone? I was discussing my memory of the story with Lane the other day, and he’d really like to read it. Unfortunately, I’ve had no luck finding it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ten minutes after I posted this, I found the story. It’s called The Secret Sense.
