Re: Trumpet Toys

I received nothing trumpet-wise.

However, I started my daughter out on her classical music collection. She's 13 and been dancing since she was 4, and she plays cello.

Copland w/Bernstein, Holst w/Karajan and Monteaux, Beethoven 9 w/Solti, "Heavenly Spheres," Christopher Jackson and Montreal early music folk doing some Palestrina, and Mozart with Marriner and St. Martins.

I wrote a little note on each CD giving her a "here's Daddy's 25 words why this is wonderful and great."

I let her hear some Alison Balsom the other day and showed her Miss Balsom's website. Helen was stoked.

She was very excited about the presents!

Regards,
