Read this a few times, i quite liked how you could detect almost the sound and the type of the playing just from hiw you described it. And that image of the end of a summer shower of rain is so effective. Nicely done.

Interesting and pleasurable journey into (piano)? - But I don't think it needs 88 keys stanza. It all sounds techy, rather than (heehee) poetic. Enjoyed your wave of phase in Mexborough t'other night.

Hey Alex. Yes, piano! And thank you so much for the feedback. I truly appreciate it and agree.! In fact, I deleted the 88 keys bit. See what you think.

Wonderful. In reading this, I actually felt the little wrench in my soul that I feel when I play on the black keys like especially the Moonlight Sonata. Nice work, Rich!

Thanks so much Karen. I greatly appreciate your comments. One of these days I've promised myself that I would learn to play the piano or guitar or something. I'm making zero progress, but I listen to a lot of both!!!

Forgive yet another intrusion, but must say, listenting to lotsa' music is the first move towards playing the instrument. Sorta' like what lotsa' reading is to writing, don't you think?
