Week 10 - D-minor: saddest of all keys

[streetnights]

I'm on stage, in front of the crowd, and performing a solo. It’s a piece by Yiruma, and though I don't quite have his energy, I know the piece by heart and I'm sailing through it. I hit the notes as he would, soar and fall and ride the music, and I think - no, I know - I'm playing just as well as I've ever been, my fingers dancing across the ivory

The biggest surprise here was the female narrator, because I'd really pegged this person as male for some reason. I loved the distinction between playing the music and feeling it, though-which is the difference between mere technical skill and musicianship, and sometimes that gap is huge.

This intersection was really well done. I loved both sides of it!
