Only The Wise and Bold Have Trailed

"I often wondered where so many successful popular musical artists had migrated to. In a existential point of view, most likely, with the coming of age, the well-deserved retirement in some paradisiacal island or country. Professionally, from one gig to another, from one drop to the next to the ultimate, from one assignment/contract to another, from one festival to the next... somewhat a marathon of sameness. Accuradio has definitely widened my scope of knowledge re: music in general, but particularly, en suite, a track of those missing links which comprised my musical taste, built through decades of listening and enjoying. Now, I find a Dave Brubeck conducting his masterpiece with the London Symphony Orchestra and Lalo Schifrin, the Argentinian jazz-fiend and Hollywood score writer in his youth, turned a masterful Symphonic composer, both in their ripe age. It seems to me that a few wise and bold artists with their extraordinarily wider view of their tools of work and true potential, dig in deeply, interweaving instrument sounds to emerge with gems of majestic proportions. Indeed gratifying for composers and music lovers alike."
