This was one of those sunny days where everything goes right.
Some very good pianists turned up.One of them played -'Bluesette'
for me as I dont read music too well....The song,in a jazz-waltz time,
seemed to overcome the soft and slightly out of tune sound of the piano...and was very pretty(I like pretty music)
The equally good ' mysterious girl in white dress' (very pretty) played various classical pieces including a lovely one by Debussy....I just had to ask what it was called....
A gentleman played-'Night Train' (Jimmy Forrest ?) ....various jazz items.
Another player used an unusual method which involved a giant and dense ten-finger chord...from which jazzy sounds evolved and floated out in the summer air.
The piano under the west way had a sharper sound...better tuned BUT the keys had to be pressed much harder.
Naturally I forgot the flash card with the pictures on when i came to the internet cafe....so I'll upload them when im next here...i would be very glad to hear from any or all of the above players as i am very interested in pianos and music. email is:............................................... stephenworld000@live.co.uk
