Having seen many outdoor concerts in my life, it has always
amazed me how we musicians keep our music organized and attached on our
music stands in the face of breezy or windy weather.
This painting is born not of a real event, but of my worry and imagination. I can close my eyes and "see" music flying about.
Actually, many people believe that music is constantly flowing through the air and some lucky composer catches it, sells it and becomes famous. I have often written a piece of music, and not much later I hear something like it on the radio.
So watch out at those windy concerts. Some of the notes might get free!
Happy music and art, Cinder LeDell
