- The MUSIC part in my life -
I play piano Jazz, it's just amazing the beauty of this instrument that can make you playing both with harmony, melody and rythmic.
I play also old style Blues music (Muddy Waters, Son House, John lee hooker). As a child I had the opportunity to have an Oncle that was Bluesman and that showed me the basics of this music. The blues is feeling... Hoo! I love play it on Harmonica and guitar.
