Saturday Smile

The first time I heard this piece a couple of months ago, I was absolutely beamed somewhere far, far away.

I’ve since discovered that this hasn’t changed in subsequent listening sessions.

And don’t we all need to be beamed far away right now — at least once a day — so that we can refuel?

I am heading to a week of piano camp in Lubec, Maine in August. I downloaded the score and am sorely tempted to spend a week drilling down on this, but I know I could never sound as sublime as Olafsson.

But it may be worth a try.

What would you like to try but you know you’ll fall horribly short? Maybe it’s time to give it a shot. Leave a comment below.
