Last night I went to the Paris Philharmonic Orchestra and the music was so moving, so inspiring.
At times, I found myself closing my eyes to fully immerse myself in the experience and let my ears tune into the story they were telling. It was truly inspirational.
This morning, I am on my way to Versailles and I am so excited to be on the big train so I can sit and enjoy my 40 minute experience and see all the landscape outside of the Paris city center. As I was sitting, I was definitely still groggy from getting up early and these two men walk in and start playing their instruments. The upbeat music was such a stark contrast to the quiet lull that rocked the passengers in the train.
I found it so welcoming— as if they were sharing their joy through music. I felt like my soul woke up for the day, and I instantly shifted my mood into a much cheerier one, rather than tired one.
I appreciate those people that can inspire and move and wake up people’s souls through their musical instruments. Whether they be in a professional orchestra setting, or someone on the street (or train ☺️) sharing for love of music with the world.
Much Love, Much Movement from Music, and Music Inspiration to Learn an Instrument of my Own,

P.S. As if this was meant to be the theme, the older gentlemen across the aisle is sitting and staring at his phone as Taylor Swift’s “Paris” is playing out loud. I love it!
