So a lot of projects are... self-initiated especially when it's something I want to hear I did another one string orchestra just strings I love writing for strings and I wanted I had this sound I was going for and I wrote a piece called orient point and named after a place in Long Island where my mother lived beautiful by the water and So I did that for myself as well, and that got played too.

So sometimes they get driven.

So that's the impetus, is an idea or somebody else's idea.

It is interesting to note that the gaucho himself makes nearly everything connected with his outfit, from the saddle in which he rides to the boots which cover his feet.

Though these horsemen of the Orient and of South America are picturesque types of the riders of the world, the list would indeed be incomplete if we omitted our own Indian and cowboy.

To the former no price is too high, no danger too threatening to risk, no undertaking too hazardous to attempt, that will win for him a horse.

His wealth is told in the number of his horses, and while he may keep his promise of peace to the settler, he can rarely resist borrowing one of his horses if occasion seems to him to demand the need of it.

They met their old enemies the Russians on equal terms as Picturesque and more gaudy in appearance and trapping than either the Bedouin or the Cossack is the wily Vaquero of our neighboring Mexico Agile hearty and dashing Adepts in the work of the lasso throwing as well as with arms They are alike interesting in exhibition and dangerous as foes But Of all these native born and wonderful horsemen of lands other than our own Perhaps the most complete the most daring and dangerous and war the most phenomenal trailer the greatest Pathfinder is the wonderful gaucho from the llanos of the Argentine Republic From his earliest infancy the half wild horses have been his intimates and familiars When the American or English boy is just learning to stand on his feet alone The infant Gaucho is being taught by his fond mother to steady himself on the back of one of the ponies of the herd At the age of four years He can ride the wildest colt that roams the pampas and from that time he and his horse are practically one And to unseat him would be almost a tear from the horse a portion of his own anatomy He is by virtue of this home life and occupations completely dependent on his horse he spends most of his life on horseback and is associated with the wild equine to a greater degree than any member of the other equestrian races of the world Armed with a deadly bolas.
