<html><div style='background-color:'><P>Another interesting book is Hazrat Kahn's the Mysticism of sound and music.&nbsp; I found it on the Shambala web page.&nbsp;&nbsp; <A href="http://www.shambala.com">www.shambala.com</A>.&nbsp;&nbsp; </P>
<P>I have had no trouble when travelling.&nbsp;&nbsp; I was in Austin&nbsp;two years ago &nbsp;when the terrorist alert level was raised and they only asked me what was in the bag.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Last year I was asked to take it out of the bag and then play it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When in Newark airport I've had no trouble at all.</P>
<P>go figure...........</P>

A. Mathieu's work &gt;Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2005 08:24:10 -0800 (PST) &gt; &gt; &gt;In addition to *The Listening Book* and *Harmonic Experience*, &gt;(www.metroactive.com/papers/sonoma/09.11.97/books-music-9737.html &gt;Mathieu, pianist and composer, has written a book called *The &gt;Musical Life*, which explores the notion that being musical doesn't &gt;really have, &gt; &gt; to do with knowing how to play an instrument or to sing in tune. &gt; It is, he says, "a way of being aware, an angle of perception, &gt; a tilt of the ear.
&gt;(www.spiritualityhealth.com/newsh/items/bookreview/item_7033.html) &gt; &gt;His books are exceptional journeys into what it is to be involved &gt;with music as a way of life, and how to make music more a part of &gt;life. &gt; &gt;And his interest in Sufi Islam, mysticism, music, and the poetry &gt;of Rumi, will make for comfortable reading for those of you interested &gt;in the spiritual and zen aspects of the shakuhachi. But even &gt;without that stuff, his work deserves a spot on anyone's bookshelf, &gt;musician, shakuhachi player, or not. &gt; &gt;bj &gt; &gt;- &gt;_____________________________________________ &gt; &gt;List subscription information is at: &gt; http://communication.ucsd.edu/shaku/listsub.html </div></html>
