Musica Con Encanto… Charm of Music
Valentine’s Day… It’s finally came, once again. So yep, I went out on a date… a date between me and music. At the school, we have a piano concert by Duo del Sol that will be playing songs from 2 composers. And interesting enough it was the 2 favorite composers that my dear Jenny, is so passionate about which are Franz SCHUBERT and Robert SCHUMANN. It was my first time attending a piano concert but instead of feeling weird about it, I actually enjoyed it. I was alone, but yet, I wasn’t alone.
I am sure that you must have heard the phrase that “a picture speaks a thousand words” and the same can be implied regarding music with the exception of the intensity of the words that are being spoken by the music because the vibration of the sounds vibrate in me from within.
Today’s piano concert has reminded me of the day that we went to San Diego not long ago before I came to Spain. The picture above is the crystal piano from the Museum of Making Music in San Diego. We had less than an hour to go around the entire museum, so we just went around as fast as we can, pressing every button there is on the way and listen to the different sound of the instruments. Read about the history of music and instrument, and then we came across this KAWAI crystal piano… my imaginary dream piano that actually exists!!!
One day, soon enough, I will have this piano in my living room. Last I checked, it is going for $94,000… so it is going to be a while before I get to see it in my living room. None the less, there is nothing wrong dreaming about it!
Happy Valentine’s Day… ^_^
