A wonderful morning in Chicago! The sun was bright, glittering off of a calm Lake. Not a cloud in the sky at 7:30 am – a rather unusual occurrence in this town. The boats were in their slips resting quietly after a weekend during which many more craft were out on adventures than I normally see. I was station hopping on the radio and found a wonderful piece that fit the morning perfectly - Giuseppe Torelli’s Symphony for Four Trumpets on WFMT.
I did not know this piece at all as I enjoy classical music but do not remember the names of any but the most famous works. But anyway, the trumpets made loud clarion calls that stirred my heart and mind. The world is alive – you are alive – live strong and forceful lives – make your presence known – make a positive impact – this is not a day to be quiet - arise and use your energy today.
This Symphony sends a strong message for me today.
Take care.
