I’ve got to tell you about this great movie I just rented. It reminded me so much of my passion for music and why I think it’s so important for every serious musician to learn to read music and take his craft seriously. The movie is called the Soloist. Have you seen it?

 

It was so good. There were alot of great themes about humanity and struggle. Also, there was so much about the love and passion for music.

 

The guy played by Jamie Foxx (I don’t remember his character’s name) was a musician at the amazing music school Julliard. He was incredibly talented and played a number of instruments. Over time and battling a serious mental illness he wound up on the street. However, even with a half broken mind his love for Beethoven and classical music abounded and he beautified the sounds of New York with a two string Violin and a cello given to him by a friend.

 

It’s great. I know you love music and as much as I do and that you want to take your music education seriously, so you should definately check it out.
