Typically I write something absurd in this space, and I get ridiculed behind my back by the goats and the weasels who meet in the river. This time, though, I want simply to reference some actual music for those of you who are lovers of that stuff.
I have recently been listening to a record called "My First 79 Years" which compiles music featuring a violinist by the name of Isaac Stern. Mr. Stern's violin playing has truly knocked my socks off and as I search for where they may have landed, I suggest that you find a way to give it a listen.
