Musica, film e libri

Music: Good music. Music that makes you feel and breathe and think and laugh and cry and love and wonder and smile and dream.

Books: The Phantom Tollboth, The Little Prince, mostly children's literature...it has so much to say without using so many words.

Movies: Foreign films and most anything that isn't stupid and has something poignant to say.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

ONE amazing thing? Are you serious? My life is amazing!
*Playing a horn solo in a cathedral in Paris that was finished before Notre Dame was begun.
*Walking the city wall in Rothenburg, Germany
*Playing an orchestra concert for homeless people in downtown Memphis
*Eating breakfast on the St.Louis Arch steps
*Going inside an organ at the St.Louis City Museum
*Seeing Mahler 2 live
*Making a difference in the life of a child
*Standing in the Koenigssee and knowing that I shared that with three generations.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I can teach you most anything you want to know about the horn, and I can tell you a lot about music in general. I also know how to do calligraphy.

I very much want to learn how to dance.
