Happy Thanksgiving Week!
I’m off this week in my studio and decided to take a week off from blogging as well. Hopefully I can tackle all the things that I’ve been adding to my list of oh-I-can-just-wait-and-do-that-during-my-week-off. 
I’ll leave you with a beautiful quote that some friends sent me recently:
“Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world.
Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul;
it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.
I have no pleasure in any man who despises music.
It is no invention of ours: it is a gift of God. I place it next to theology.
Satan hates music: he knows how it drives the evil spirit out of us.
My heart, which is so full to overflowing,
has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.
Music is the art of the prophets and the gift of God.~Martin Luther
May you all have a blessed week!
Enjoy your break! I had heard the first part of that quote before, but to hear it in its entirety was quite powerful. I especially love the part about “Satan hates music.” I must say it puts a smile on my face and makes my teaching worthwhile if I am helping advance God’s kingdom against Satan!
Wow. You’ve got a very nice and interesting site here, my friend. I appreciate your passion and efforts in spreading the good news about music and teaching music. Your ideas can surely be useful to most music teachers out there. May I suggest that you also consider posting some creative and innovative studio management tips and other resources on how we can effectively and efficiently manage a music classroom or a music studio. Thanks again and more power to your endeavors. Til your next posts. Enjoy your week off. Happy Thanksgiving Week to you, too.
