About Me

Kansas City, MO, United States
Pictures on Silence features classical music reviews from the audience member's point of view. Opera, new music, CDs from time to time,symphonic music and the occasional off topic post is the fare.

I simply love classical music, love writing about it and wish to share my experiences with other enthusiasts.
