Some kids are amazing -- musically.

My nephew is a professional drummer, he also teaches.  This week one of his new students is this little girl -- cutest thing ever and he said she is amazing, you would think she has been playing drums her entire life she is taking to it like a fish to water......  and her little red drums are so cute!!!!  He gets a lot of pleasure out of teaching children to play, they are sponges.

Vivaldi Four Seasons Winter Sand Animation film Ferenc Cakó

only because Winter is my favorite of all.

Incidentally, has anybody noticed that they are currently using a part of Vivaldi's "Winter" in a car commercial?  The one where the guy scales an auto transport truck.

I think it's Volkswagon or Hyundai.
