Music is a language that opens up to us a different world, one that is unspoken and largely unnoticed.
For me, playing music is simultaneously a challenge and a source of invigoration, physically, mentally and spiritually. I am grateful to all the teachers, artists and former and present colleagues of mine who have contributed to the wonderful concerts, experiences, and travels, both actual and imaginary, that music makes possible for us.
