Taps played on a trumpet.



I received the enclosed attachment from my Uncle and thought I'd pass it on. Many of us have suffered through some tough renditions of "Taps" over the years by well-meaning but not always highly-talented buglers. The young lady in this attachment plays the Taps derivative piece, "II Silenzio"(moment of silence), beautifully. Some of you will recognize Andre Rieu as the orchestra leader and I suspect the concert was in Holland, his homeland. Music can touch even the hardest of hearts and bring us all closer together.

Maria, because of lack of feedback on the blog I moved my energy to Facebook. I just made my first entry in a long while today, hope it is enjoyed.
