Lost in a musical reverie

I love how music can cause my heart to ache with sorrow or happiness...
how music stimulates my imagination...
how music can cause me to feel completely and utterly engaged when I hear it...
how music teaches me more and more about myself...
how music can convey powerful messages without a word...


Last night I had a musical experience that ranks up there with some of my most cherished memories. I was one of over 300 musicians on stage that performed Verdi's Requiem in front of a sell-out audience at the Melbourne Town Hall. I cannot even begin to describe the thrill of emotions I and my fellow musicians experienced, truly a case of music speaking where words fail. I am so utterly, utterly blessed to be studying music.
