Our dad was a great guy and we will never forget him.

Mostly this problem is contained in the fact that the US makes it so difficult for Canadians to get green cards (you heard it here), but if an American orchestra really wants a player, they have their ways.

The concept is basically; that the pieces we know and love are made up of scales, arpeggios, and the like.

What is classical music if not the epitome of sensuality, passion, and understated erotica that popular music, even with all of its energy and life, cannot even begin to touch?

I see no reason to hide who I am or what I look like.

For many years, the government of Canada has massively supported orchestras and the arts in general.

I had been playing since I was 2 years old, never remembering a life without music, always playing everything naturally and mostly by ear, and all the grownups wanted were more scales and drudgery out of me.
