Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2

Work Hard. Play Hard.

Maybe a few of you knew how my appreciation toward classical music. Since my childhood, I always dream if I can play piano someday. I always visit my sister’s friend house because she has a piano. At that time we rent a flat at Temerloh.

For kid like me, I only can listen to the music and hope someday I can learn it. Time passed and I still follow the classical music sometimes. Library being my favorite when I in Form 4. This is because a lot of autobiography books of great composer such as Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin can be found. At that time I always wondering how possible Beethoven composed a great piece of music even he is deaf.

This is one of the pieces that I like, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2.

What I try to do, when writing down my music, is to make it say simply and directly what is in my heart when I am composing. Whether there is love, or bitterness, or sadness or religion, these feelings become a part of my music and it becomes either beautiful or bitter or sad or religious. -Sergey Vasil’yevich Rachmaninov-

This is from Korean Movie entitled For Horowitz (My Piano). I think he is sexy when playing a piano…

Anyway, my dream to learn playing piano still not reaches yet. Time, commitment and financial make me think twice. However I still seek for opportunity.

saya bermain piano sejak umur 6..wohoo..thankful to mom for sending me to the classes..best jugak bila tau pasal music cuz u can self-thaught yourself playing other musical instruments..

its not too late to learn to play kasyah..

ps:Beethoven was partially deaf..he will have the foot of the piano cut off to a certain height and the piano being put down near the floor..he lays on the floor..plays the notes and listen to it from the vibration it makes on the floor..correct me if i’m wrong though
