remembering sasha
Today I met Andrey for the first time. The moment I played Rach 3 on him, I knew he was the one... Haha, Andrey is of course my so-called 'new' piano, but since he's 10 years old he can't be called new. But I have to, so to speak, find Sasha a new home first to make way for Andrey (who's no midget).
Ahhh... Letting go of Sasha is like losing a friend... He stuck with me from grade 2 (even earlier, methinks) to 8, and I learnt my first piano concerto (Grieg's) and Rach 3 with him, and even cried on him once. And he also put up with (a younger) me slamming the lid down in anger or hitting the keys in frustration when I could not perfect a piece. Oh yes, I also composed my song (which was later recorded into a CD and performed in a concert hall) on him, and you can say he was the first to hear it. In fact, I think that Sasha, of all the things that I own so far, contains the most memories, and is one of the very few things that still survives from my childhood. We have been through so much together.

about me
Just a nobody who likes planes, football and classical music. A weird combination.
Has a strange liking for old/dead Russian composers and pianists, with the notable exception of A.Lubiantsev.
Supports Arsenal FC. Thinks A330s are hot.
