RE: ". . . very well written"?

Thank you for the B+. I am definitely not a professional journalist.

I was not sure at first how to describe my experience at the show without pictures.

Then...I recalled one of the discs that I brought to the show with me (that sounded really good in the Odyssey room), Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition."

Mussorgsky describes the paintings that he see's in a friend's gallery show through music. I love the way that "Pictures at an Exhibition" musically invites you to "walk" with Mussorgsky through the show. I borrowed some of his repeated musical phrases...leitmotifs that he uses to invite his listener along...such as the door metaphor...trying to achieve the same thing.

Alas, I don't have the great artist's skill, but I am nevertheless honored to receive a B+ from you.
