But, Force Your Way Into Its Secrets

Enjoy - My Friends:Notice how many young people are in the orchestra!
When we take our education system back- music and art will be added
first- and with those- Reading- Writing and Arithmetic will come more
smoothly to the students-
During my tenure of teaching- I taught
art and music to K- 6 - the supposed 'hyperactive' (now it's called ADD)
students were NOT hyperactive in my classes!

Bravo!!!
Again, you find the right chord with me.....
When I was in high school I started taking music lessons (percussion) and was active all four years in Concert Choir (bass), Swing Choir (bass), Concert band (percussion), swing band (percussion), marching band (percussion) and Symphony band (percussion). I have marched in 5 Rose parades (Oregon not Pasadena) and the most memorable music experience of my life was when our concert choir was chosen to accompany the Oregon Symphony for one song. That experience, standing on risers smack dab in the middle of the Orchestra and absorbing the sound from within was almost religious. Through the whole number I swear I had goosebumps funning up and down my body (like that tingle Christ Mathews feels for Obama). The steaophonic perfectness of that moment was astounding and this video brought that memory back to me as I watched it like it happened yesterday......
R- Good to 'meet' a fellow musician and music lover--!!
Of course that was 38 years ago.
Wish I had the talent to play a musical instrument.
It's so lovely and peaceful.
