The Blues. It Runs Through All American Music. Somebody Bending The Note. The Other Is The Two-beat Groove. It's In New Orleans Music, It's In Jazz, It's In Country Music, It's In Gospel.

I Love Gustavo Dudamel And I Love What He Does For Classical Music, And I Love What He Comes Out Of, El Sistema And The Old Man Abreu.
