My husband is a rock musician but is affiliated with this world renown Jazz
musician who played with his quintet last night in the Valley. This man
is in his early 70's and has devoted his life and talents to his music for over 50 years
in Europe and the US, so it was quite an honor to meet him after the show.
for me it was almost an instant recognition and mutual appreciation.
But what really surprised and delighted me was when he was soloing on stage
there was an unexpected moment where i literally felt tears welling up, my heart lightening up and warming up,
an exhilarating energy pulsing through me as i was feeling the music; this incredible man's incredible musicianship.
it was delicious and beautiful to behold. it reminded me of the power of art, and that what i do, what my husband
is doing, is just so damn right.
