Apollo 11 1969. During a decade of turmoil the US Space program brought a vision of a possible future. Artemis II is bringing their own version of "Spirit of Apollo" to the 21st Century. Let's call it "Artemis On the Should of Giants"

Congratulations to my piano student Rushil Yeluri and his Carnegie Hall debut. He won the American Protege International Competition and performed with a worldwide cast of young musicians. He performed the Tuba Concerto by Edward Gregson and studies brass with Jung Moo Lee of the Dallas Asian Winds.

Rushil's impressive accomplishments as a high school senior are a reflection of family love and support, self-starting motivation, and a broad education beyond music and arts.

The Dallas Symphony Orchestra, as part of their comprehensive arts/music education outreach, provided me with the information to enroll Rushil into the competition. Otis Gray of Steinway & Sons (Plano, Texas) put me in touch with Benjamin Alan Loeb who produced the audition video demo and performed the piano accompaniment.

Stay tuned as there was more to my NYC trip beyond Carnegie Hall. - Mike Dawson

CPB Rescissions and Shutting Down
President Trump initiated a $9.4 billion Rescissions Package that was signed into law on July 24, 2025. It marked the first completely partisan package in history, clawing back previously approved funding from the Department of State, USAID, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). A rescissions package is a tool used to cancel funds that Congress had already authorized for this year, making this action especially significant.

CPB funding was the largest source of funding for local public television and public radio stations. Unfortunately making matters worse, Congress has not included funding for CPB for the next two years. As a result, CPB will close its doors on September 30, 2025, and many local stations may be forced to do the same, especially in rural areas.
