I'm convinced that when we help our children find healthy ways of dealing with their feelings—ways that don't hurt them or anyone else—we're helping to make our world a safer, better place. – Fred Rogers

All true-and no practice for more than 3 days.... Also, my favorite trio! #musicpractice #ArthurRubinsteinpoetofpiano

Sharing a laugh pianist Arthur Rubinstein, violinist Jascha Heifetz and cellist Emanuel Feuermann. A “million dollar” trio. Who said, “If I don’t practice 1 day I know it; if I don’t play 2 days the critics know it, if I don’t play 3 days the audience knows it!” #music #historic

35 years today since beloved Jacqueline du Pré left us. What a communicator: the warmth of her heart, her passionate personality, shone through every note she played. What a tragic end - but let us remember her now at her happiest, touching our hearts so deeply with her music.

Creativity before our eyes-you discover it and it discovers you #musicalgenius #PaulMcCartney teapawt.org/ATRightMovies/status/1…
Having your“what” and “why” leads to your “how” and “when”- with love and commitment🎶

Absolutely correct! A choir encompasses so much. You hear it and you feel it and those sensations are potent with beauty, hope and possibilities. #ilovechoralsinging
