| "My son has grown and
learned more about what it really takes to
be part of an industry than most kids will
ever experience", says Stephen Grisanti.
"Seeing my son on stage playing with
Lagond and jamming to heavy Latin, Funk tunes
in serious clubs is the ultimate dream."

| "The first semester was awesome!
Edan had a wonderful experience playing and
cooperating with other musicians, and the
gigs at the end of the semester were not only
an experience for him, it was a great fun
time for the whole family. We are looking
forward to the next semester. As they all
know each other well, I am sure that it will
be reflected in their confidence playing together
which will make the music even better."

| Just a quick thank you for
all you've done for Jon over these past few

| Please share this with Charlie, I meant to call you yesterday. I got the best Christmas gift Jesse could have ever given me. On Wednesday, he came home from lesson all excited about a new song he was learning ("Bohemian ?"). He couldn't wait for me to hear the CD and then play it for me (on sax and drums!). (I have to beg to get him to play for me!) THen he said, "It is really hard but so much fun to play". That was music to my ears! I don' t ever recall seeing that kind of enthusiasm from him. Thanks Charlie! Maybe we are finally breaking through and turning a corner in Jesse's musical life! Carolyn |
