Thank you for your continuous parti...Amigo Matías,<br /><br />Thank you for your continuous participation in the blog conversation. I send you warm greetings (or rather happy to receive warmth from the Argentinian summer to cold NY) from cold NY. <br /><br />Katy,<br /><br />You have that It Factor. Keep positive. Committed artists like you can only go forward and inspire! <br />P.S. (For Plato Socrates)...I find that mode of writing so much more personal. Could not write always in that format, but I enjoy it. Glad you noticed!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6919674981128634746.post-77044793434516886952013-01-28T15:34:09.082-05:002013-01-28T15:34:09.082-05:00My dear friend, thank you for this post.

I am inspired by you (as always!) and heartened in the face of not a few challenges. <br /><br />Not to mention, am impressed by the shift to Platonic/Socratic dialogue ;-)<br /><br />Know that you have infused one dramatic mezzo with the positivity which was sadly lacking in recent weeks...<br /><br />Thank you.Katy Marriotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093906400421890375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6919674981128634746.post-16382543856628492662013-01-27T19:56:45.542-05:002013-01-27T19:56:45.542-05:00Dear Jean-Ronald, I'm reading this post while...Dear Jean-Ronald, I'm reading this post while having dinner after my first summer tour date this afternoon in the Atlantic Coast here in Argentina. I found your words very exciting and moving since I always wonder about the "It" factor, trying to thin and philosophize about music and art in a deeper way<br /><br />I believe today people felt that intense energy you talk about in your last paragraph while we were playing as there were a lot of individuals sitting on the sand listening carefully and what made it more emotional for me was to see little kids of about 7 or 8 years watching our show so concentrated with opened ears to our music. <br /><br />I believe that being a good musician and a good artist involves more than just technique and giving good performances , it takes a good opened mind that concentrates on what we can do right now to achieve our goals and that is a lesson most teachers won't give you while you learn scales or vocalize.<br /><br />Thanks again and keep up the good work with your blog!!!<br /><br />Matías Montali from ArgentinaScalectrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14838023206187153974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6919674981128634746.post-3391531411458125472013-01-27T19:55:26.609-05:002013-01-27T19:55:26.609-05:00Dear Jean-Ronald, I'm reading this post while...Dear Jean-Ronald, I'm reading this post while having dinner after my first summer tour date this afternoon in the Atlantic Coast here in Argentina.
