It's Valentine’s Day! Mahler’s Adagietto from his Fifth Symphony was a love letter without words, his declaration to Alma. He sent her the sheet music in silence, trusting the music to say it all. She understood immediately and replied: "Come to me!"

"The more you struggle to live, the less you live. Give up the notion that you must be sure of what you are doing. Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure … you are above everything distressing." ~ Baruch Spinoza

Good morning. Music, art, creativity, is what makes us human and enhances our lives. Can you imagine any experience - a wedding, a celebration, a funeral, a graduation, a show, without music? I can’t. #music #art #literature #dance #theater #photography

Good morning. Did you know positive encouragement and enthusiasm works wonders? Consistency is most important: a few minutes each day rather than longer sessions every few days. Record them “performing” and play it back so they can feel proud, see and hear tangible progress.

A friend found this last week in an antique store in Europe. It’s a note Carlos Kleiber gave to the oboes (he liked doing this sort of thing), probably when he performed La Bohème at either the Metropolitan Opera or Covent Garden.

One of my esteemed mentors was the brilliant pianist, teacher, pedagogue György Sebök, and chamber music partner of my teacher János Starker. This quote is one for every musician to remember when one hasn’t played ‘perfectly’ “Even the sun has spots.”
