CURRENT MISSION To spread brotherhood through Mahler, Beethoven and Stravinsky. ABOUT ME Beauty and fullness of tone can be achieved by having the whole orchestra play with high clarinets and a carefully selected number of piccolos. Gustav Mahler Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. Ludwig von Beethoven I am in the present. I cannot know what tomorrow will bring forth. I can know only what the truth is for me today. That is what I am called upon to serve, and I serve it in all lucidity. Igor Stravinsky PHILOSOPHY What we get most annoyed with other people about is what we dislike most about ourselves. -Severo Guzman

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Hosting and surfing. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE The most interesting, thus far, have been weekends with 6 dancers in a two bedroom apartment. I was at this point working a desk job in NC and performing clarinet/percussion/dance on the weekends in VA. Each morning I would cook them breakfast after nights of toenail painting and/or drinking and falling asleep with whichever gay man wanted to spoon that evening.
Muzyka, filmy i książki
Movies: Eh... anything with a well timed key change. Music: Classical (as generic as that term is) music: Mahler, Beethoven, Kodaly, BRAHMS, Schubert, Shostakovich and all sorts of other brilliant people. Jarabe de Palo, U2, Bjork, Aphex Twin, TOOL, Radiohead, NIN, Portishead, Jean Pierre Rampal, The Postal Service, Charles Mingus... I could go on forever. Books: You can tell I am really into a book when I am reading it upside down.
Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
I've seen where Beethoven rests. I sat in front of his grave for two hours. Then walked ten feet over to Brahms' resting place and did the same.

Everyone is musically inclined. At the very base of our existence we are vibration. Everything we do has a rhythm and a melody from our heartbeats to the way we inflect our speech. We are all musicians part of the incredible rhythm that is life. Is that too cheesy?
