…it soothes, it inspires, it speaks the feelings inside me that have no words. This is a something I have never taken for granted, and when I hear myself play I sometimes wonder where the music comes from, and how do I play? Sometimes I have no idea how my fingers seem to find the right notes at the right time. Music is pure magic, non?

    You know, this is exactly how I feel when I play and I usually improvise. Its a window of my soul and I need it to let my feelings flow on to the keys!
    It is a bit like meditating, ja?

    Don’t tell me that in addition to your MANY amazing talents, you can ALSO play the piano… You are amazing, dear Pia.

    Ann Marie – thank you. Yes this is posssibly the smallest home I’ve lived in but I was determined to fit in a piano and hey, there’s still plenty of room. Well, just.

    Victoria – how wonderful that you feel the same. It is indeed when I improvise too. And yes, it’s certainly meditating.

    Mary-Laure – merci beaucoup mais, I’m sure you’ve heard me playing before, non?

    trinsch – thank you.

    that’s what painting is like for me. Pia darling, is that handwriting or a typeface (if so, which one)?

    Hi Pia, I came across to this piece of music and thought that you might enjoy it if you haven’t already http://www.take-a-piano-sheet-music-break.com/support-files/braga_c_angels_serenade_piano_beg.pdf
    I like to play it slowly and softly.
