"What a beautiful rendition! You put a lot of "love" in your performance. I got tears in my eyes from emotion. Thank you so much for the beauty you brought to the music!!!" Bravissimo you brilliant pianist! Oh, it captured my hopes and dreams. You did everything I wished. So beautiful. Your fingers sang. Composers only write notes. Its the performer who brings it alive. Thank you. Bravissimo again. |
