Greetings all,

 Today, the owner of Little Rock Jams in Arkansas(Jason Priest), has offered free lessons to any presidential candiadate in exchange for his vote this fall.  I thought this was particullarly clever considering I actually know someone who has done that. (Ronda Cole who taught Amy Carter  Violin).  Jason’s Blog is very popular on the internet and it has great content for students interested in non-classical western music(Jazz, blues, Funk, fusion, rock, etc.) , so I invite everyone to take a look at it sometime.  It is guitar oriented so especially if any moms and dads out there play guitar they may enjoy some of the material.    And ofcouse if any of you work for Obama, Hillary, or Mccain, please make it a point to let he or she  know about the great opportunity to help him win the state of Arkansas this fall.

Try not to cry for too long…This represents a wonderful example of the power of music to change the heart and bring out feelings from within.

Just for Fun, Enjoy…A survey of music throughout time.

It is O.K. to enjoy yourself while playing classical music.
