A concert pianist friend of mine when she was seeking support to buy a Yamaha concert grand (which she succeeded with, BTW) said "what is a pianist without a piano and what is a piano without a pianist? They have no meaning without each other"
Years ago, I wrote a song about the musician as an instrument in the hands of the Great Musician. If you care to listen, please excuse the piano timbre of the 01/Wpro...

The amount of galaxies stars and planets is awesome, the amount of silent space, more so.

Infinite space for mystery and creation.

Lester!! Thank you once again!
I loved your music and quotation in equal measures! :-)
I love your sound choices and harmonic/melodic ideas! Nothing pretentious - if you know what I mean! Very musical and engaging!

Please, please keep them coming! ;-)
