Mozart - Piano Concerto No.19, K.459 (Murray Perahia)


Let me tell you how this piece of music came to me!

I parked my car behind Chapter in Ottawa, waiting to pick up my teen daughter finish her work. It was winter, snow still on the ground and there was no way to be melt soon. 

It was cold, normally Ottawa's winter bitterly cold. I sat inside the car and my mind started wondering off….  What this life lead me to? I spend most of my "as a mother" life in waiting, waiting to pick up the girls after school, after piano lessons, after birthday parties, after sleep overs, in the doctor's office, the dentist's, I did, while waiting, I saw my life passing before my eyes... 

I opened the car door to catch some fresh air, and I looked down, there was a cassette tape on the snow, I picked it up, it was Mozart's Piano concerto #18 in B flat major, K456 and Piano concerto #19 in F major, K459 on the other side.

I put it into my car cassette deck and... it was like in heaven. At that moment, I was so alive in this lovely country on this planet earth listen to Mozart. The angels' flavour, the rest was really doesn't matter...

Marilyn is 83



















Amélie is 34

Veronique is 42

If Diana didn't die she'll light 48 candles

Can you imagine Marilyn Monroe is 82

Doesn't matter you are commoner or beautiful

wealthy poor witty stupid mean spirit sweet nature

glamour down to earth

a small town gal

has been visit China Japan Thailand Bali Rio

our mother was baby girl teenager

so was our beloved granny

Everyone is getting old

Time is fair share and equal

Can't buy it back with endless zero

If it's time to go it's time to go

no heaven no hell no recall

love care patient kind gentle nice cherish all others

that's why you come that's why you go
