I have lived in Toronto Canada, Acapulco Mexico, and Shenzhen, China a sister city to Hong Kong. This has been 7 years in Toronto, 3 years in Acapulco and 2 Years in Shenzhen.

I have contributed to the music culture of all these cities and composed music for the local musicians in their context of understanding. Canadian Tunes 32, Diago Rivera Jazz Suite, Tone Poems and Folk Jazz Tunes from China.

I have been a free lance New York City Musician for over 25 years learning about the musical culture in our own country. http:

While in China I started to write a Blog and have written over 90 articles on music and the conditions of creative music which you can read on my web site.

I have been trying to promote real music to the major media organization for instrumental music (ABC, CBS and NBS: these institution have no moral content in their programming activities.)and promoting real pay for jazz musicians here in New York City with Smalls Jazz Club. http:

www.cmporg.org I might add with little success. The pop culture is destroying music by making pop vocal artists so important with their little knowledge of real music.

I was very happy to learn about NTU outreach program to other countries. It is really needed in this computer age and atomic age. I do not understand why it cannot be in the main stream media. The greed for profit destroys so many beautiful things in the world.

It is an honor to have graduated from UNT and this eastern University hold on our country I believe is wrong and only promotes discrimination. Other Universities have to fight against the miss guided control of our culture like Harvard for example. If you graduate from Harvard somehow one is better. Really!

Good Luck NT University and your programs. I have learned that it is so difficult to change the world at all.

Sincerely

Greg Henry Waters
