Maybe they are a lot more like us than we thought…

Your “CORAZON” is your heart…
Strauss… Totally classical, and the thing that amazes me still about a symphony is that so many artists with such various instruments co-ordinate to make such a huge and complex piece of music, with so many different tones and so on…
All ages, all together. And a thing that gets me is that my parents complained when I played popular and rock music at the volume I supposed it was originally heard at - when a Symphony Orchestra even without modern electronic amplification must have been equally as loud as ZZTOP, a band notorious for being heard five miles away when they played…
In fact, I once brought out my stereo (back in the seventies) and put it in the living room of my Poppas house so we could listen to a simulcast of Arthur Feidler and the Boston Pops at the halfshell in Boston for the fourth of July celebration -

But feel free to join in by all means! I would love to hear some choice music from the Netherlands and other places around the world…
For decades I have been fascinated with the North American Southwest. If you have seen pictures and videos of New Mexico, Nevada, and Arizona - there is something deeply enchanting about the place itself, even though many native people there exist at a poverty level there is a rich heritage and community spirit there that embodies many spiritual ideas. Native american mythology and stories are very different from elsewhere around the planet and Carlos Nakai seems to capture much of that with a simple wooden flute…

Am I just doing that good a job? Or is this a lame topic…
