Congrats to our colleague in Houston, Brinton Smith, on a beautiful and inspiring speech to the HSO board of directors. He illustrates the fact that truly great music unites us all and is a key element to living our lives with joy and beauty. Well worth the read.
Near the end of each season, the Houston Symphony Society holds its annual board and trustees meeting. This year, our Principal Cellist Brinton Averil Smith spoke to the attendees on behalf of the musicians. His speech turned out to be so much more than a board address. We hope you will read it, draw inspiration from it, and be reminded of the true power of music.
