A true musician is an artist with musical senses who sees the world with his creative mind. A musician, like any other artist, lives, breathes and cherishes his art every moment of his being. Every true musician, no matter how great they get to be and no matter how accomplished they get to be, always aspire to be one with their music, to be recognized with their music and to be identified by their music. True musicians are full of humility who dedicate their entire life to their art. True musicians are eternal performers who long for the warmth and the love of their audience, a feeling that they cannot hide or compromise. This also rings true for singers.
It does not matter, who their audience is. It does not matter where they perform. It does not matter if anyone is in their audience or not. It does not matter if the material is in a foreign language. It does not matter what the lyrics are. It does not matter about the weather - warm, cold, hot or damp, rain or shine, day or night. It just doesn't matter! The show must go on.
I have seen all that and more in one man. Having seen this phenomenon first hand and having known a great musician, a great artist, a great singer, a great human being from whom I learn't everything including music, I can't help but think how fortunate I am to have personally spent time with a true friend, my dad. May his soul rest in peace!
