There is a vitality A life force A quickening That is translated through you into action. And because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through any other medium, and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable it is, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours—clearly and directly. To keep the channel open. ~ Martha Graham, the late modern dance teacher and choreographer Music educator Matthew Marsolek reads this quote in his conversation with @andy.vand for the next episode of The Dandelion Effect Podcast—a passionate discussion about the wide world of music: listening, connecting, moving emotion, uniting and expressing your unique voice. This conversation goes live tomorrow, and you’ll feel like you’re right in the drum circle, listening to him jam on the Djembe, sing West African tunes, tell stories about his upbringing and teach from the depths of his soul. #expressyourself #useyourvoice #drumcircles #musiceducation #westafricandrumming #drumbrothers #musicunites https://www.instagram.com/p/CKFJz4EjJiy/?igshid=ozml9v32duc0
