When we arranged a "play date" with Stanford Thompson and Thomas Lloyd, neither had ever met the other. We wanted to capture two Creative Connectors connecting for the first time, through music. We were wrong - all of us. When the two finally met in person at Haverford College, they realized they had, indeed, met earlier at the Curtis Institute of Music for a recital. Thompson was studying trumpet at the time; Lloyd was arranging a choral section. The pair met again recently at Haverford College to play an impromptu arrangement of the spiritual, "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." Watch and listen as two Connectors make music together.
