Dear Friend,

If you are here for my sitar, welcome! You may wish to go straight to that page and ignore all the rest. But perhaps the art, original operas and chamber music, ideas and essays, and a novel, may be of interest to you.

Sitar has been my spine for over fifty years. But I also have pursued other interests for various reasons. The explanation about why this occurred will be in the writing section.

I hope to generate money here for my projects, and also in order to keep body, soul and teeth in one place awhile longer! But this site will also serve as a place that I can share art and ideas with you.

Nietzsche and Dostoevsky had very few readers They addressed hoped for readers in the future as, “Dear Reader.” I remember that when I learned this in my teens, I thought, oh, that will be my audience!

best wishes,

David
