My name is Emile, and I my passion is music.
I am incredibly fortunate in that I make my living doing what I love most of all - playing the piano. But not just that.
I love to make people smile, laugh, cry even, by playing music that moves them, reminds them of wonderful times past, makes them remember their dreams and their goals, the loves of their lives, the happy times, occasionally the very sad times too.
In a holistic sense, music reminds us of the precious, wonderful feelings of emotions that let us know with intensity that we are alive, vitally alive, feeling every cell, every pore of our bodies and souls, that feeling that only music can bring us.
That is what I am fortunate enough to do on a regular basis, and I am truly blessed in that regard.
I can sit all by myself on a rainy day (or a sunny one!) and let my heart and mind flow out of my fingertips through the piano and into the world and be emotionally fulfilled. I have this outlet for everything I love, everything I believe, through the language of music.
Pretty cool, huh?
Welcome to my blog.
I have some things that I would like to share on the subject of playing the piano, entertaining people - which is an entirely different subject, and the process of learning new repertoire, and perfecting the music we already know.
Join in the discussion by asking questions or making suggestions of what to talk about.
We'll start with a question that a young musician sent to me not long ago, on the subject of "What to perform and how to know when it is ready for public performance.
