Our World Has Two Halves
People believe a person's spirit continues to live after a person dies. While no evidence supports this belief, the existence of a person's material body and immaterial self is readily verifiable. Although a material body is temporal with a beginning and ending and an immaterial self is timeless with neither a beginning nor an ending, the two exist in relation to each other.
The Life and History of William Call
From my boyhood I wanted to be a composer, but waited until I was a senior in high school to write my first composition. It was modeled after the music I played at school and community socials. In the little town where I grew up music was communal–everybody young and old alike, listened and danced to the same tunes. The music that I would write in later years, though more sophisticated, was nonetheless infused with the lingering influence of those early years.
Advertising Partners
I have a long history of supporting and participating in the regional arts community, including extensive advertising in the Utah Symphony | Utah Opera Playbill—helping keep classical music visible, supported, and thriving.
