Excerpt from Emblems of Mind


So when you play music, you also embrace a style. A style suggests ways to sit, ways to sing, ways to feel rhythm. It also suggests ways to think. A style even defines a musical community---a group with shared notions about musical communication without misunderstanding, a common sense of what is being said and why.

Marissa,

In the picture I was playing a Salzedo Model harp at the Lyon and Healy factory in Chicago from when we were out of town.
I own and really play a Lyon and Healy style 30 in ebony!
