Rotman Postlude

While I sort out ongoing technical problems with WordPress, please enjoy this post as a slideshow on Phanfare.

After appearing as a special guest at the Rotman School for a graduate course in Creative Industries, I unwound by playing through a favourite piece…in a favourite location!

‘Agra’ was spontaeously ‘composed’ by Paul Horn in the heavenly acoustics of the Taj Mahal, in the Agra District of India…instead of those glorious acoustics, the ambience is created here with the delightful fountains of the Massey College courtyard.

My sincere thanks to Professor Ajay Agrawal and his class for such a wonderful opportunity to brainstorm about shaping a National Policy for the Arts!
