A THRILL AT THE SYMPHONY

The Nashville Symphony was absolutely thrilling. I saw 'The Organ Symphony'...conducted by Giancario Guerrero, with special guest violinist Hilary Hahn. I decided to splurge and get seats in the 3rd row...which was exciting, but we couldn't see the brass/wind sections in the back. There is something sofantastic about a live orchestra, it is amazing to think it used to be the only way people would hear music. It is becoming a lost art, and I am thankful for the people who keep it alive. If you have not gone to a symphony, do it!! After the show, I saw one of the violinists in the lobby and asked her for a picture. She thought I was asking her to take a picture of us, not with her...she was so surprised I wanted a pic with her, I was a geeky fan. We've stayed in touch, her name is Kirsten and she's insanely talented. It was a lovely night, rubbing elbows with high-society and the treat of intelligent music.

WRAPPING UP THE YEAR IN ENGLAND

I spent the end of 2009 in the English country side with my family. The house dates back 500 years. We had lots of laughs, food, and music. I feel very at home in England, although it took me 30 hours of travel each way to get there and back.
