Some experiences themselves so sharply on our memory that they form islands of clarity in our recollection. For me, such a momentous took place one night in California many years ago, when I lay awake listening to the rapturous strains of a mockingbird singing from an invisible in one of the tall trees that were around the suburban neighbourhood. I don't suffer from insomnia — it was the exquisite artistry of the singer that kept me awake. As I followed his intricately woven melodies, I found myself into an unexpected aesthetic environment. In order to follow the patterns that issued from the bird, I had to call on my experience of jazz and Indian classical music. The bird had me that I was being treated to an ad lib performance of the most breathtaking improvisational acrobatics. I groaned and I cheered as one improbable musical variation followed another through the open window where I lay listening, until finally I fell asleep.
