Related: TEDx talk for adults like me who never got the hang of reading music as kids, but would like to take another stab at learning to play the piano:
Aw, thanks for the warm welcome. I’m feeling better than I have in quite a spell. (Nothing to do with Covid-19.) My Dad had a fall, but has recovered well from surgery for a partial hip replacement. Life got kind of nuts, but overall in a good way. I’m hoping to get back to DramaBeans on a more regular basis soon. And maybe I’ll finally get to see the subtitles for the final 2 episodes of KING MAKER: THE CHANGE OF DESTINY, and watch the rest of TRAIN and IT’S OKAY TO NOT BE OKAY…
I hope that you’re doing well, too. What have you been watching? Any recommendations for worthy dramas or films? 😉
Oh sorry to hear about your Dad’s fall, but glad to know he’s better, and happy to know you and Mr. P and your extended family are all well! Things are good in my neck of the woods too!
I’m excited to know you’re back in dramaland and will be following “Do You Like Brahms?” I’ve enjoyed the selection so far, and have been scouring youtube for Ravel’s Tzigane for violin and piano for a bit now! Is there a definitive version you’d recommend? Do post on your wall if you have anything in mind. (I came across this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FzYge-uUCk)
For a new delightful drama with a great OST (I liked the background music more than OST, actually), I’d highly recommend “Into The Ring” aka “Memorials”. From the OST, I have been tripping on this piece lately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efW4bHrAer4&t=31s
The BGM has a ton of leitmotifs and I thought it had a lovely “comic” sound, which is rare and difficult to do well, IMO.

I’m watching Memorials right now and it’s hitting some great comedy notes.
