Ei bine, ca pianist clasic, nu sunt prea priceput în acest gen de lucruri, așa că a fost doar o încercare după recitalul „adevărat”. Btw, o mare distracție! 🙂

Care este cea mai puternică și prețioasă forță din Univers?

„I would say that anyone who acts without paying attention to what he is doing is wasting his life. I’d go as far as to say that life is denied by lack of attention, whether it be to cleaning windows or trying to write a masterpiece.” Nadia Boulanger *

Have you ever heard „Besame mucho”? Of course you’ve heard it: it’s one of the most famous songs in the world and, apparently, the most recorded of all time. And of course you know the refrain words: „Besame, besame mucho, como si fuera esta noche la ultima vez… ” and consequently the feeling of sensuality and passion that they suggest: indeed, how would you make love with someone you like, if you know that it might be the last time?

Michelangelo și prizonierul din piatră

The work of a sculptor has always seemed to me extremely fascinating. Think for a moment: you have in front of you a block of marble and you begin to carve with a chisel. Little by little, from the stone a „form” begins to appear, the stone begins to have a „meaning”, and this form and meaning represent the materialization of an idea that was in your mind as well as the manifestation in the physical plane of your creative power. It’s something that makes us similar to the gods.

This process can appear trivial, but there are some aspects that deserve to be explored: the block of marble is a space of infinite potentiality, it contains an infinite number of statues of which only one will materialize. It is interesting to note that to sculpt a statue is a process that does not involve a real „creation”, as the statue is ALREADY inside the stone, but it implies the elimination of all that is unnecessary and prevents the statue to come to light and to manifest.

Tot ce poți să fii

“How would our world be, if each of us used their talents and their ability to make a contribution?”

“…for it is as when a man, going into another country, called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey. Straightway he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents. In like manner he also that received the two gained other two.But he that received the one went away and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money…” (from the Gospel according to Matthew, 25:14-18)

I consider the music of Bach as one of the reasons why life is worth living. Any of his preludes and fugues reaches such a level of mathematical complexity, accompanied by such a superhuman beauty, that it probably represents the closest thing to perfection that can be conceived on this earth.
