This part of the US always screams "skiing" to me - I'm fortunate to come here fairly regularly with family to enjoy the mountains and get my girls enjoying the snow from an early age. One of the many joys of having an American wife!It's also an area where people really appreciate music. We're heading up to Boulder today, from our hotel base in Denver, to give a concert to what I already know will be an appreciative audience. Last night's concert here in town was a sell-out, and the atmosphere within the hall was pregnant with anticipation - whether we were about to deliver a Renaissance masterpiece such as Orlandus Lassus' "Resonet in Laudibus" or a contemporary arrangement of a Christmas favourite. No dumbing down required here.The beauty and vastness of the US is something best appreciated from the air. We tend to fly most days when we're touring North America, and the landscape changes enormously beneath us as we travel. Over the past few days we've flown over the Rockies and the Grand Tetons, seen the plains of Montana stretching out below us, and approached Seattle on a wet and windy afternoon. Tomorrow we fly across to Washington, D.C. before heading up to Ottawa to visit our Canadian cousins - always a joy, like a sorbet in the middle of our US trips.And, wherever we go, folks want to receive some Christmas cheer.
