As I sat in Carnegie Hall waiting for the Steve Reich concert to begin, I considered the insightful comments of fellow Gothamite Janet Sullivan at Monday’s Encores meeting about the complex impact of music.
As the music began, I allowed a different perspective on listening to the music to take hold. I was mindful of allowing the music in — not just listening. I tried to allow the music to move thoughts without interference from my ever-active brain.
And Steve Reich’s music was perfect for this new adventure.
Thank you Janet.

It was great to watch Ben relax and enjoy the concert!
We were privileged to be at the premiere of “Traveler’s Prayer”, a new work by Steve Reich. Added honor to have Mr. Reich come on stage for bows and applause so well deserved.

Music is very powerful. Full of emotion which transcends the mind into different places.
