song without words

I started writing some sort of sad post about how I'm just upset with how the world is even going....and then I deleted it three different times....so I'll just leave it at this: Although I feel very removed from the situation since my physical distance is so far away, I feel incredibly emotionally connected to the tragedy in Boston. Families, friends, and helpers: you are all in my prayers.

I was planning to publish another video from my recital today, and to me it fits perfectly with how I feel.


Yes, its Bach. Which means its boring, right?

WRONG.

Take a listen and let Bach's writing speak to you....a song without words.

To me this movement (from a four movement Sonata) is about pain, anxiety, and beauty- all in one....maybe even similar to the cruelty of what happened to our country yesterday alongside the amazing acts of selflessness that were (and still are being) witnessed.

I hope that you and your loved ones are safe and feeling renewed in your commitment to not take any day for granted! I will try to join you in that :)
