“It's really a lot of fun to see that this music can actually survive, that it can be concert music. My solo shows are already going along that path. You have the freedom to basically push to party, or you can tell a story from nothing with soundscapes, moving images, to a real party mood. At some concerts, people get out of their seats and start dancing after a while.” PeopleRealStoriesShowsMovingFunPartyPathDancingMoodSeatsConcertsSolo Author:Pantha du Prince
“A good story is alive, ever changing and growing as it meets each listener or reader in a spirited and unique encounter, while the moralistic tale is not only dead on arrival, it's already been embalmed.

The child gets to decide what the story means.” WayMeanChildrenStoriesLiteratureLosesImaginationAliveGrowingReaderUniqueDancingTalesEncountersListenersGood StoryLivelyArrivalsSpiritedChildren's Literature Author:Katherine Paterson
