Piano Love

Just realized that I have not been playing piano for quite a while. Yup, a pretty long time. Nowadays, I just wont take the initiative to go down to function hall to practise. Firstly, the piano in function hall is kinda out of tune. Secondly and most importantly, I am just too lazy to do so.

While studying today, Yee Yee mentioned about Joe Hisaishi. He is a great composer/pianist from Japan.

Thus, I went youtube to search for his pieces. Awesome indeed.
Music is really something that goes beyond boundary. Music from different country, culture, genre is still MUSIC!

Sometimes, perhaps, we just need to slow down and listen to the music around you.

* Well, quoting from Science of Music: "MIDI is different from real recording".*
To me, nothing beats life performance. MIDI file is too too 'rigid', emotionless.
