Music makes the world go around. Let's play a palindrome!

About Me

I am a musician who happens to perform on the saxophone. I love a great deal of music from many genres. I have been told that one must focus on one form to reach an artistic level. I denounce that notion. I choose to listen and be influenced by a great deal of music, taking what i enjoy as the best and crafting it into my own reality. An Uber Genre? Who knows, i'll be dead before they redefine music as art anyway! I believe in full exploration of art, music, theater and literature to complete a person. body { background-color:ffffff; background-image:url('http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g296 /edge06/layouts/MusicBlurBG.jpg');
