Fire is not my friend.

Yes!
Tomorrow I'm definitly going to look for some music books and partitions for both piano and violin. I need to start learning some stuff or else Dunant will again make fun of me this summer. Everyone knows I don't want this happening.

This is what I'm planning to get:

☐ At least 2 or 3 books with decent explanations on chords and transposition and shit.

(stuff in bold is what I'm planning to learn as soon as I get the notes)

☐ Chopin - Fantaisie Impromptu (piano)
☐ Chopin - Marche Funèbre (piano)
☐ Chopin - Nocturnes (piano)
☐ Chopin - Piano concerto no.1 & 2 (piano)
☐ Rachmaninoff - Tableaux (piano)
☐ Rachmaninoff - Whatever I can find.
☐ Liszt - La Campanella (piano) (yes I know, you might be reading this and be like "WHAA SUICIDAL"... and you'd be right. This is a suicide)
☐ Liszt - Rhapsodies (piano)
☐ Satie - Gnossiennes (piano) (I'm REALLY looking for those...)
☐ Debussy - Clair de Lune (piano)
☐ Debussy - Clair de Lune (violin, piano)
☐ Debussy - Some sonatas?
☐ Grieg - Sonatas? ☑
☐ Astor Piazzolla - Le Grand Tango (cello, piano)
☐ Sibelius - Violin concerto (not planning to learn it right now. I just want the partitions for later)
☐ Kreisler - Praeludium & Allegro (violin, piano)
☐ Vitali - Chaconne (violin, piano)
☐ Ravel - Jeux d'eau

Eventually moar stuff.

... Yeah. There are just some events like this that completly change us for good.

After what I saw this evening, I'm not the same person anymore. Itzhak Perlman. He is what I would really call a powerful man. A living monument. Someone that you hear once and that completly changes you. He played the Mendelsohnn concerto, this piece so famous that it is now known everywhere on Earth. As it used to be hard as hell, now, many violinists manage to play it. But for Perlman, it's different. I really have no clue how to describe it. He just played the intro, and all that came from the audience was a soft, whispered "Oh". Everyone in this auditorium knew the tune and could've sang along to it; instead they chose to let Perlman play it. And he did. Beautifully. Intensely.

He cannot walk properly, but at the end, with our bursting aplauses, he came back to thank us. He leaved for the second time. The applauses continued. And he came back again. This simple thing had such a strong purpose to me... He is in pain just to make a few moves, yet couldn't help but come thank us by his presence. I know how sincere applauses feel like; they feel so good that you don't even know how to thank the person. He played many times in public, and probably got way more than all we gave to him in the past. But he came again. And yet again. Just to show us that he wasn't just "this soloist", but "the soloist". The one we'll never forget about.

Ah...
