Station pianist at The Hague, plays music from the ‘Soul’

 

Musicality and poetry have much in common – expressionism, perfectionism, mysticism. I happen to love both. I played piano until Grade 6 and would get lost in playing, I had to be asked to stop. My favourites to play were Mozart and Haydn, at best sweet and tuneful. We all know what the worst sounds like thanks to Mr. Dawson.There is a certain angst to poetry that is often found in music, where the discord lives, hiding or displaying the layers of feeling and expression that the poet is trying to convey. There is pain and beauty in both art forms, and so much to continue to explore, learn from and be inspired by.
