Music as Communication and Celebration

What does it really mean to live a musical life?

As we look ahead to 2026, Adam and Peter talk about music as a way of being. Not a checklist, or a finish line, or something reserved for “professionals.” They share why they believe everyone is a musician, and why taste and curiosity matter more than optimization.

Whether you're a musician, or a lover of music, anyone can lead a musical life.
