I have a couple autistic friends from church, one male and one female,
and I'm learning how to communicate with them and they are sighted,
thanks to bookshare, they have some books in regards to that.

"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you
forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated,
but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to,
then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in
the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of
the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti
