    I’ve been away in another country for a week.

    Watching others

    I was in a bar the other day. It was the busiest bar on the street. One of the groups of drinkers broke out and two girls started dancing something like an Irish jig or the Riverdance. The sound drew me in, their energy. It was a good few seconds before I noticed I was even…

A few questions arise and linger in the air… What’s needed of me?  I am needed?  Can dancers find their own music?  Why am I here, as a musician?
