Greetings,
Inspiring four minute trailer for A Life of Joyful Discovery, a documentary about the icon of wind ensemble music, Frederick Fennell.
Here are my favorite quotes from Fennell in the trailer:
• “Your business is to make music with the people in front of you. It doesn’t matter who they are.”
• “…feel their contact with each other…their reaching out beyond themselves to other people.”
• “They were not just players, they were listeners, and that’s were they were the kind of players they were., because they were the kind of listeners they were.”
Enjoy!
Catherine
Breathing, music performance and pedagogy, creativity, the flute and flute-playing.
