Playing music gives us a personal connection to an abstract spiritual world, where time changes, and becomes "all at once". The present, past, and future disappear into one unbroken experience. In the infinite present, music gives us a glimpse into our collective past, and a vision for our future.

The best music is courageous. It speaks to all of the human experience — our joy, our sorrow, and everything in between. It challenges our focus and skill, and gives us a great reward — a chance to momentarily find the perfection we seek, as we wrestle with our very flawed reality.

Peace,
