    I have no idea if you read it one day, but I really hope so you do.
    The fact that you create beautifully sounding flutes is obvious. But there is much more hidden in this story. I want you to know, I consider you an artist and a man of culture in every way. It's how you sneak your acting skills, weave various cultural themes and symbols, deserve for... I have no words. I think you have a beautiful soul. I would like to have such self-confidence someday. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, skills and sense of humor in such a fascinating way. Good bless you!

    Just picked up this strange looking instrument from a neighbor, discovered via the web, it's one of your concert tuned "Skinny" bamboo saxes in B flat.
    Never played a sax before, discovered the sweet sounds they make. Looking forward to learning how to create some of my own once I learn how to play it prolificantly.
    Hope to meet you one day and hear you play live.
