Me and one of my best friends painted this piano with one of our favorite quotes from Tennyson's Ulysses that we had to memorize for school a long time ago. It reads,
"Come my friends, 'tis not too late to seek a newer world. Push off and sitting well in order smite the sounding furrows, for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset and the baths of all the western stars until I die...That which we are, we are. One equal temper of heroic hearts made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To Strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
Waiting for ASO Young Composers Contest practice, White tickles the ivory. This is how song and inspiration are created. Being the first young composer to be played by ASO was quite an achievement. However, creating an annual young composers contest for others to follow was genius by ASO and but yet another achievement in a long line by White. Happy 100 years ASO!
