"Now, after listening to 354 submissions, Ma has chosen not one, but two winners — hear him pick the winning entries by clicking the link above — whose musical DNA couldn't be more opposite. ________________________Toshi is a native of Japan whose father wanted him to learn their country's traditional music. "Instead, I chose to bang my head," Toshi says. "That was the beginning of my heavy-metal history. Thanks to Iron Maiden. I formed my very first band when I was 15." Now, Toshi writes music for his band Antiquus, based in Vancouver. ______________From the opposite end of the aural spectrum comes the gently clanging tones of hand bells, courtesy of composer and arranger Kevin McChesney. His music has won him a number of awards, and he now directs the Pikes Peak Ringers from his home in Colorado Springs, Colo." - Michael Muller

Now all we need is someone to go to www.Jamglue.com and combine Yo-Yo Ma playing his "Donna Nobis Pacem" on viola with both of the winning accompaniments: hand bell chorus and heavy metal, all toghether. - Michael Muller
