Songs of Inspiration (5) – Seven Bridges Road

Songs of InspirationBy TshoonJune 14, 2020Leave a comment

The upside of being locked-down during a pandemic is that you can ask yourself some basic questions and actually spend some time answering them. An easy one to answer – theoretically, that is 😉 – was: How to get rid of these #QuarantineKilos? Somewhat more challenging perhaps: What gets me going when work is done,…

Heroes (3) – Mind-blowing Minneapolis

HeroesBy TshoonJune 6, 2020Leave a comment

(Photo credits to Mr. Yusuf Beyazit)     How to comfort pain? How to unite where others tend to divide, rule and stumble?

Admin’s LogBy TshoonMarch 7, 2020Leave a comment

Folks, first of all, piano above was meant to be a piece of ART. It was on display in Munich 2015 (DE) and although we couldn’t reach nor play it at the time, it seemed just the right eye-catcher for today’s blog… There isn’t a single subject in this world without adversaries; Public Pianos are…

Musical EncountersBy TshoonOctober 13, 2019Leave a comment

Today’s blog is about 2 spectacular Public Piano players: Terry Miles and Brendan Kavanagh. These UK-based musicians have a lot in common but – to us – one thing sets them apart really. Even if you’re living at the other side of the world, chances are you already watched them play, since both have a…
