And, and that s so the piano has always been my personal way of expressing myself as a musician. We ve talked about this a couple of times, so we can t remember never being best friends. I don t remember even our first meeting. I just remember there was the time before Tony in my life and then the time afterwards.
Composer Eric Whitacre and poet Charles Anthony (Tony) Silvestri, first met in college choir at the University of Nevada. Eric was an undergrad, and Tony was working on his doctoral thesis. Because of that chance encounter, they became lifelong friends and collaborators.
