Anyone who knows me at all well knows that one of the driving forces behind why I do what I do (which is to say, make music for kids and adults) is my steadfast belief in the unique giftedness and potential of each individual. There are few people I have heard speak with as much authority, passion, and humor on this topic than (Sir) Ken Robinson. I first became aware of him after watching his wonderful TED Talk from 2007 (or 2006?) It is worth the 20 minutes to watch it in its entirety!
Fun fact: Sir Ken was born in Liverpool and went to school with a young (Sir) Paul McCartney!
