Description
(Text)
There is immense wealth that lies hidden in the recesses of people's beings and many don't ever realize it.
In an era of dwindling support for the arts in schools and communities, most of us have come of age believing we have no creative ability. We are unaware of the divine gift we receive at birth, and the sacred commission to use that gift to better the world around us. In Boredom to Brilliance, Timothy Simpson helps us to discover that gift, the power of the arts. Whether offering insights from the world of opera, sharing his own journey of discovery, or providing hands-on exercises designed to motivate, he illustrates the necessity of self-expression and gives the reader a practical approach to unlocking the creative spirit inherent in us all. If you haven't yet found your place in the world or what you want to do in life, this book will set you on your path.
'Your dream, your vision, your idea, however small or grand it may be, is a gift to you and therefore your gift to the world.'
(Author portrait)
Timothy Simpson is a native of Bowling Green, Kentucky, and studied music at Western Kentucky University and the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. He moved to Europe 20 years ago to pursue a career as an opera singer. In transforming himself from bored suburban Kentucky teen into a lead operatic tenor with a repertoire of over 70 operas in many different theaters in Germany and Europe, he learned firsthand the methods the power of the arts provides to overcome challenges. He has distilled the lessons of his journey into a practical workbook and a source of encouragement for readers at every level.
