Hey Everyone,

I had a great time at the Walt Disney Concert Hall Gala Opening Celebration last night. The Disney Concert Hall is one of the premier places in the world to see the best in classical and jazz music! "Grands on Grand" was the theme for last nights performance and it featured Richard Strauss's "Festival Prelude Opus 61, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Concerto in F major for Three Pianos",  Hexameron", a six solo piano concerto composed by Franz Liszt and John Philip Sousa's, "Stars and Stripes Forever".

After the performance, there was quite a festive gala with dinner and music provided by the Henri Mancini Institute!
I am off to Oakland in just 2 hours so I have to get on the road. I have a few articles in that I have to write for you, Jack Sheldon at the Westin and "An Evening of Jazz" presented by the John Coltrane Foundation.

Enjoy your weekend and I will see you next week!!!!
