PBS recently aired a September 2008 performance of George Gershwin's music featuring the Nashville Symphony. The show's closing piece was "Rhapsody in Blue," perhaps Gershwin's most well-known piece. I've enjoyed the song for a long time but never had the opportunity to "see" it performed and videoed to such great effect.
It was incredible to SEE guest soloist Kevin Cole's performance - his hands were up and down the keyboard in such commanding fashion. In the video excerpt below, you get some sense of the wonder of his performance.
For other sensory experiences you encounter, identify a different dimension to begin to experience them: Maybe listening to a dog being petted or feeling the texture of the ingredients in a home cooked meal? You decide and come to some new senses of your own.
Update Note: Because of Good Friday, there won't be a post on Friday, April 10.
