      Dr. Farrell loves Leonard for his succinct presentations on music theory. As a child in the 1950’s, Bernstein came to orchestras across the country and gave lectures for schools to explain music theory and orchestral instruments. I was lucky enough to see him in Cincinnati, probably about 1958 or 9: 3rd or 4th grade. I won’t ever forget the experience.

        I wrote this before I got to page 10 of “The Tower of Babel Moment”. Face palm.

          It’s really something. Information is so easy to acquire these days yet the real gems are hidden from us by the shear volume of crap you have to wade through.
