Pianist Bill Evans said to play the music that pleases you; the audience will find you.

Chuck Anderson’s latest post is about finding your own unique voice as a musician. People are always looking to play faster and better, but that’s not what an audience necessarily responds to…take a look. Our latest reader story is from Bob Francis in Spokane, Washington. Bob played the trombone from 5th grade through high school, and in a US Army band. He sold his horn shortly after getting married and never touched one again…that is, until he received a surprise gift from his daughter and son-in -law for his 50th birthday. It’s a wonderful story…take a look.  Thanks to all who submitted stories. You’ll see them in the coming weeks. If you submitted a story and have not seen it, please re-submit it.
