There are so many amazing musicians, amazing people, and so much amazing music up here.  My close friends up here really are some of the most dynamic people that I&#8217;ve ever met, and though each one of us almost represents a different extreme, we all compliment each other&#8217;s personalities quite nicely.  I love it here. I feel like I&#8217;m really growing as a person and musician.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and the music! There is so much in Boston! Everyone comes through here! I saw Ron Carter last night with Mulgrew Miller and Russell Malone, and my passion and love for jazz reached a new record breaking high.  It was the most subtle, yet most intense, show that I had ever seen.  Listening to Ron Carter play was like being shown the way and the truth.  I wanted to cry when I met him afterwards, I was so happy. (Yes, I&#8217;m a nerd).  Genuine, pure, good music is really a spiritual and emotional experience that brings you up to a new level of life.  I could hardly contain myself last night.  Ever since I&#8217;ve been here in Boston, I&#8217;ve only realized more and more how thankful I am that I came here to study music instead of going somewhere else to study business or engineering or what-have-you. If I had done anthing else, I don&#8217;t think I could live with myself the rest of my life. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/curiousrose.com\/petals\/wp-content\/thumb-CIMG1479.JPG\" alt=\"Sarah with Ron Carter and Mulgrew Miller\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As a sidenote, let me say that Russell Malone is one of the funniest people alive today!
