Pieter practicing Bach's Minuet

A happy Pieter on Sunday evening, October 25, 1998 while I was cooking supper...
Pieter points to section where he has to play 8 notes at once and also read them!

ENJOY:

    People who have musical (or other) talent always amaze me! No one in my family does, that's certain. Music definitely speaks to the soul and can bring such joy. :-)

    Music is a joy, and the performer of music (in this case, Pieter) experienced and enthusiastic, offers us , the audience a great pleasure. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello Mariette and Pieter, What a charming piece that Minuet is, and how lucky to be able to play it for yourself. In my Ohio life I had a piano, and what a blessing it was for figuring out music and playing some favorite pieces. A keyboard instrument can often be the center of a home.

    It can be seen that your Pieter, in addition to being a multifaceted man, is an excellent entertainer. You are a wonderful couple

    Hey, pretty good. Now he needs to start working on the left hand! I used to play a little, but never kept at it.

    Thanks for sharing the little video, Mariette. Pieter is so talented. Oh, how I wish I continued with my piano lessons. I can only play a couple songs to this day. I hope you are doing well, and enjoy the Autumn season coming up. : )

    I enjoyed that. I came from Duta's blog and thought that is a Dutch name when I saw yours Indeed Where is the accent from? Groningen?

    Hello, Mariette. I hope that your PET went well. I am praying for you and Pieter. God bless you both. Father Sean. PS Maybe in light of the video you posted here you should change the name of the blog to 'MARIETTE'S BACH TO BASICS'. On that (flat?) note I'll leave.
