No doubt a large part of your enjoyment of the piece came from Kenneth's fine playing. Best of luck with your studies, regards, Barry Dear Michael,

In his performance, he played a tune that you had written for him called Rock Me! May I just say... Thanks. Thanks for exploring what needed to be explored on the saxophone. I, Myself am a saxophonist going for his music ed bachelors... I am also a Jazz performer in the Washington D.C. area who also plays in a Dave Matthews Tribute. I play much rock, jazz, and classical in my life's journey. When I heard your piece today, it reaffirmed my love for the saxophone. I have a renewed interest in everything I've ever done. I feel like I can take idea's from what you have done with this tune, and use it in my improvisation now. In my opinion, you are a genius. Congratulations on being one of today's most innovative composers! With high regards, Michael Vitale Senior Music Ed Major George Mason University Dear Barry,
