I love Music. Any kind of music-- R&B, Soul, Rock, Country, Classical, Opera, "Ethnic, etc etc,. However my one overriding musical love has always been so-called Jazz, which is really African American Classical Music. It motivates, energises, and centers me like no other genre or form. I do not believe in a supreme being but I do believe in music and playing music as a Unifying force with which to connect more deeply with the earth on which we live and the Cosmos of which it, and we, are a part. As part of that love I play the saxophone as a means of self-expression and meditation. Lately I have been enjoying the alto a great deal even though I am a Tenor player at heart. I also play soprano from time to time and since the winter have been learning to play the Bass Clarinet because I love the tonal qualities it produces. It's a challenge but that's good because we need challenges to keep us alive and connected to life. I also love language and am trilingual. I like a good linguistic joke although my son calls them Dad Jokes. If that's who I am, so be it. I can laugh at myself as well as at the world.
Jazz Is All
