Music

John Melhuish Strudwick


In music we are always reminded that it is our scales, our basic tone production, our underlying technique, our understanding of the phrase ... these things will always be what we need to go to to refresh ourselves. In our Work, it seems to me that all difficulties spring from something simple:
A forgetting to be compassionate, a lack of presence, a failure to reach out to the divine in the present moment.

It seems all to easy to get everything so very complicated. And then we get a cry for help from a family member, and we are REMINDED to reduce everything to it's essence -- to BE there in the present moment and to love ... So that it's not so much what we do, but more who we are.
