Isaac Stern believed that the making of music could bring countries together.
-If symphony orchestras would lead their lives as nations politically do today you'd never hear a concert. 'Come in together on the same beat! Play the same note at the same time! You're wrong, you're notes are wrong only my notes are right.' When would you ever hear a concert.
"In order to have music together they must think of 'we' not 'they'."
I wonder what would he think of the world today????

About Me
- Katie
- I am a daughter of God who is striving to do and be all that God has for me. I'm a pretty normal person, kinda goofy at times, but I can be a dear. If I try :) I always try to be happy and I'm never lazy, I've tried, it doesn't agree with me. Once you meet me you'll never want for entertainment :)

If only life was that simple.
What about all internal conflict? The people vying for the different chairs? Those other musicians that you just can't stand personally, or can't stand you? The inter-orchestra politics as it were.
Utopia is a beautiful concept, and outside of the mind of Christ, an impossible achievement. It is in fact so impractical, that as a goal, it is not worth working towards. All we can do, is focus on perfecting our God given tallent, and trust that He will incorperate it into His grand design, as the Great Conductor.
