My husband and I heard this on the classical station and we both commented how beautiful it was. Our 21 month old was silent with wonder the entire time it played. It is our new favorite!

This has been one of my fav songs since finding for a music appreciation class freshman year of college 25 years ago :) thank you, professor! Great class, great find.

This one is so moving that I was driving at one time when it came in the radio and I had to park the car so that I could enjoy it fully. Thanks for this beautiful music!

I was driving home from Goodwill after I had bought some cordaroys. It was warm I had my windows down and as the wind blew in this song came on.

I just heard this today on my local classical music radio station. I had to hear it again. Oh, it's beautiful!

I first heard this during a very sad period in my life, I was coming out of my cocoon with great difficulty and then as I drove off to my new life I felt the joy and serenity of this piece . It's a beautiful blessing, It reminded me that difficulty and change are part of the butterfly's life and mine.

Dear Mark, Butterfly's Day Out is one of the most sublime and beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. I listen to it regularly. Thank you very much.

In 1993, I was invited out to an inner-city camp at Montgomery Bell made up of mostly African American kids from the W.O. Smith Music School in Nashville. Because I was fairly new to this kind of education outreach, I was nervous about how to hold the interest of eight and ten year olds. I had just written a new mandolin piece but had not named it, so I got a notepad and passed out a slip of paper to each child. I asked the children to listen to me play my new piece and to write down what they wanted the tune to be named. Some of the titles were fantastic; I could have easily used several of them. One ten-year old wrote, “Butterfly’s Day Out.” It was so poetic. “Butterfly’s Day Out” would soon become a favorite, and one I later recorded with Yo-Yo Ma and Edgar Meyer.
