I have collections of notes and articles in two arch-lever files on classical music. I also have an additional two arch-lever files, one on popular: folk/rock music, and one on jazz music. I developed these collections after I retired from my career as a FT and PT student and teacher, a career which had lasted from 1949 to 2009.

In 2009 I went on two old-age pensions, one from Canada and one from Australia. I could then enjoy the world of music much more than I ever had during my working life, my life as: a student and a teacher, a lecturer and an adult educator, as well as a parent and a father, among literally dozens of other ascribed and achieved roles that were part of my life at various times and for various periods from the 1940s to the first decade of the 21st century.

Music has played an important part in my life unlike the many forms of dance and gymnastics, figure skating and synchronized swimming which are sports that incorporate dance. In addition some of the martial arts are often compared to dance; the martial arts have never gained a foothold in my interest inventory and experience. I mention the area of dance because the beginnings of my first files on music, which I collected back in the 1990s and 2000s, were on the topics of "music and dance." Dance has been a peripheral part of my life; this is not so with respect to music.
