Thanks Mike.
I have been in awe of the orchestration of music since watching "Sound of Music" in the 60's. I don't really watch opera but I can't help think that "West Side Story", "Oklahoma", "South Pacific", "Grease" and "Annie" to name some of my favorites, are American version of Operas. I know that some works like "American in Paris" are largely the work of one composer and that other works are collaborations.
I guess I have been humbled thinking that I was a pretty good songwriter turning out little tunes and lyrics when my stuff is just a little frost sitting on the iceberg of musical achievement.

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
