Hello to all my friends, family, students and customers.  As many of you know, tomorrow is a major milestone birthday for me.  I’m actaully looking forward to it and am having a little drop-in at my home tomorrow evening.  You’re invited if you’re in the neighborhood.  This whole week I’ve been receiving the most wonderful cards, letters, balloons and flowers.  I’m feeling very loved and it’s a wonderful feeling.  One thing that I thought I’d ask my readers is to suggest what some of your favorite music is these days.  Since getting into this field I have become acquainted with so many more types of music than I ever knew existed.  Still, classical music is proabably my favorite since that is what I play most often but I also love folk music of all countries, Broadway musicals, sacred music, Reggae and Carribean music, Oldies from the 50, 60′s and 70′s and even some rap!  I like blues, alternative, zydeco and dance music of all kinds.  What do YOU like?  I’d love to know especially since I’m putting together playlists of music for surgery.

Also, go to my Music and the Brain blog and see a picture of my birthday cake!  Love to all!  Alice
