My apologies for bothering you. Matt Weihmuller, here from Tampa, FL. I am a saxophonist who performs and teaches music at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts. This sounds like a great opportunity. May I ask when you all are planning on attending the Museum? I would love to join you if my schedule permits. I am also attending the NFB Convention for the first time in a while and would welcome the opportunity to reconnect with any of my fellow NFB of Florida members who may be attending as well. I am also looking for any suggestions for things to attend. I strive to continue to further the cause of braille music literacy. Unfortunately, I am only able to attend the convention, Tuesday, through Friday, as I have to return to Tampa to teach my weekend music classes. Thank you so very much for your time. I really appreciate it. Take care and have a great day.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Matt<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p>Matt Weihmuller | Jazz Instructor, Patel Conservatory<o:p></o:p></p><p>David A.
