Music In The Air

.

When I met Chris Burchett last weekend (see last Tuesday's post) he was jamming with his friend William, a flute player. He's more of a jazz guy. The sweet metal tones of his instrument were carried on the wind through the nearby areas of Forest Park. It was delightful to hear the two of them out in a public park on a mild winter day.

Be sure to come back Saturday and Sunday for gun weekend on STL DPB.

There's a job opportunity today on Downtown St. Louis 365.

I have enough material from the Gypsy Caravan, Renaissance Faire and model shoot to carry me a few days. Today we sample the big flea market. Since it was for the benefit of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, it is appropriate to show some musical merchandise. I can't play any of this stuff. I took violin lessons for five years when I was a kid and never got beyond causing others aural pain. Very good ear, very bad hands. Klutz would be a simpler description. Now I just listen, and with pleasure.
