What band or musician is most important to you?

A lot of classical composers: Bach, Beethoven, Copeland, Hayden, Handel, Chopin, nsm Mozart.
Modern contemporary: David Arkenstone, for his incredible image-evoking melodies and themes
John Williams' themes have been an accompaniment to my life, as have Howard Shore's
Instrumentalists, Yo-yo Ma, Nancy Rumbel, James Galway, Itzak Perlman
Inspiration and focus: Peter, Paul, & Mary, and John Denver.

I was at one time a member of the Cousteau Society. I greatly admired and had much affection for Capt. Cousteau and his crew. Denver's 'Ay, Calypso' was the perfect anthem for the ship, the crew, and the exploratory momentum that drove them. I get chills today, when I hear it.

I couldn't pick anyone for this because every time I thought of one or two another five came into my head!

There's so many great classical composers. Aww, I love "Ay, Calypso".
