SUGGESTED HOST INTRO

Violinist Joshua Bell makes his living playing the violin - and a good living at that.  But, like most musicians, the power of music is such that he never thinks of playing the violin as just a job.


CLIP TRANSCRIPT
"As far as I'm concerned, you know, any piece of great music you can look at as being religious because it brings you what religion is supposed to bring to you, that's a glimpse of something heavenly.  And for me music is my religion, you know, in that it brings me that element of awe and beauty that people look to religion for."


SUGGESTED HOST OUTRO

Violinist Joshua Bell on the power of music, and the power of music in his life. That's something we can all probably relate to in our own way.  Let's hear Joshua Bell play (insert music title and additional performers).
