Don't know if it was you, but someone here put me on to Leonid and Friends. I watched with joy when the US ambassador got behind the piano and started the first captivating chords to Saturday In the Park. An outpouring of good feelings and appreciation.

Likewise, when Leonid tours the US, the closeness that music brings was evidenced in spades.

There are always genuine expressions of friendship and common bond sharing, with indications that if everyone got along like these two basically diverse groups do, the world would be a much nicer place.
