College student from Boston given valuable piano after playing for patrons at Norwood shop
Such a nice story!
“Deathwish Piano Mover”
Having had a piano moved a few times...I completely understand the moving company’s appropriate name. LOL!
Weird. No one is wearing a mask
Nice story. The young man is no expert, but he knows more about the piano than the average person. He could easily be trained to go further. His obvious joy of playing will guide him. Maybe there is a local church choir or entertainer he can provide background for.
One of my favorite simple songs for the beginner piano student is the Preludium C-Major by our old friend,
Johan Sebastian Bach. It’s quite beautiful in it’s simplicity and thoroughness. Using the same phrase and both hands, traveling at a leisurely pace, all over the 88 key terrain, from sunny to stormy aura.
Listen to it if so inclined. You won’t want to stop listening till the very last note. It’s like a piece of expensive candy for the ear.
he could go to church too?
There is a Silent Movie with Laurel & Hardy called
“The Music Box”. It’s beyond hilarious.
Director Hal Roach had L&H try to deliver a piano by carrying it up a steep flight of stairs. It was filmed in Los Angeles, near Hollywood. This shows the worst case scenario for any one planning to deliver a piano.
Wanna hear some racism? I went into a gun store the other day and lovingly caressed a beautiful minty pre-64 Winchester 30-30. I told the owner all about it’s history. I glanced at the serial number and told him when it was produced within a year or two without even looking it up! I told him my woman is so nice to me that she’d be happy for me to hold it in my hands and aim at the screen sometimes while I watched Bonanza reruns.
Bastard didn’t gift it to me. I suspect it is because I am white and let it slip that I was in a relationship with a woman.
Damned lowlife...
