We ARE ALL Music's CHILDREN September's Child is ... ? Identify this member of our music community, who learned to spin strings into a silver band, for a chance to win tickets or a recording. The photo was taken circa 1960 at age four. Think you might know who it is? Send your best guess to musicschildren@thewholenote.com. BY MASHA BUEU Winners will be selected by random draw from entries received on or before September 15 , 2005 July's Children ... Ooops! Retake! In case you missed the July/ August magazine: to celebrate our hundredth issue we ran childhood pictures of eleven of the people longest involved with WholeNote Magazine, and invited readers to use the clues and the masthead to figure out who was who. l . l ~ ·- ~,i)'' •. ,, ~: l,: ;[;:- ,, I . ~;:; _ _ ~~i!lf ::,;~) .. ·-...;:-';.": - _,,,~.. J~.'f" .. Were you a little baffled? No wonder! We forgot to number the photos so that you could identify the prodigies among the WholeNote ensemble. In light of this, we've decided to give everybody another month to guess by running the contest again, with the pictures numbered, on our website. And to sweeten the search, we've added pictures of the eleven people as adults. All you have to do is match them up, and say who they are! Visit www .thewholenote.com and you' ll find the enhanced version of the contest online! Good luck! Know someone whose photo should appear in this column during the 2005-2006 season? Send your suggestions to musicschildren@thewholenote.com (and in case you're wondering, it IS ok to suggest yourself!)
