 SHADORMA

two lovely
brothers make magic
musical
prodigies
exceptionally brilliant
young dutch pianists



she misses
performing duets
it was fun
a delight
you don't have to be brilliant
to play slow movements

  1. Ah, I have met these brothers before, and I am pretty sure that was here on your blog too. Magical indeed!
    You'd have to be a lot more brilliant than me, to play even slow movements! But what a solace music is, even for those who can only listen gratefully.

  4. I love how this ends - we can certainly enjoy music without being brilliant - may you always play - Jae

  7. I take a cue from this poem - one doesn't have to be brilliant to enjoy or participate in music. The love for it is enough.
