The best being about being in the middle of your career is that a lot of the frantic networking you do at the beginning of your career is done. Certainly I am still meeting new people all the time, but at this point, I've established my circles of friends. We call on each other as friends and professionals, and it just feels good to know that people really know you and you really know them.
I got called on to play on Julie Silver's new CD, Reunion. I played a bunch of nylon tracks and a couple of acoustic tracks. The music was uplifting, touching and pure, well, Julie. I love her voice and her stories and it was such a pleasure to play on her stuff. I totally recommend you picking up the CD, which you can do through www.soundswrite.com.
One of my favorite things is when different circles of friends collide, and people I love from different areas of my life finally meet. People who were once only my stories of them are finally face to face with others I have spoken to and about. I get such a high from that. It is at those times that I realize how terrific it is to celebrate my relationships and connect people to one another both socially and through music. It makes the world smaller, and it makes my circles both broader and tighter. :)
