Love when I look back on Daily Boosts I missed and find more gems!! LOVE Gershwin, love this. I am fired up on a Friday!
Ah, for this moment of quiet uplift. Thank you. (Loved those in the audience wearing masks.) And to all the people and organizations who helped Clayton Stephenson become an accomplished pianist. Imagine growing up disadvantaged in New York City, finding an old upright on the street! Think of what we can do to help young musicians.
