  Boogie Woogie
Yesterday, Sunday, I heard some of the best blues and boogie woogie music I've heard in a long time. The warm up duo was almost as good as the main act, but Ann Rabson from Virginia was smoother. She played guitar, sang and wrote music before she taught herself how to play the piano at the age of 35. She's 60 now and performs, travels and writes music. She has a friendly engaging personality so we talked awhile, and I took some photos of her. Later this month, a great guitarist, singer and music writer, Jack Williams, will be in town, and I'm looking forward to his performance. Music has always been an important part of my life, and I play trumpet, sax and sing.
 
Comments:
I played an instrument in high schooll and tho I haven't kept it up, my appreciation for music never wanes. You are right to underscore for your readers the effects of harmony.Also the fact that music-making is not isolated to major concert halls or bars. It is and should be in all parts of life.

I'm not sure what this blog is all about yet, but I do know that everything and everybody is "wabi sabi", which means incomplete, impermanent and imperfect. There now. Did that help? If not, I hope you enjoy my blog anyway.
