Wonderful film about a French piano restoration artist
yesterday, i found this incredible film clip about a frenchman who restores old and rare pianos; he actually builds pianos as well. i was very touched by this video because i come from a long line of musicians in my family. my father was a jazz painist, composer, violist and also taught music all of his life and directed orchestras as well. my mother, who is still living, was an opera singer, classical pianist and voice teacher and now at the age of 85, still teaches music, composes, directs community choirs and performing groups and still plays the piano beautifully. my grandfather was a studio musician in hollywood; he played all the woodwind instruments and was actually in the dave rose band who worked for bing crosby, red skelton, phil harris and others. so i really have a ton of music in my genes. my brothers are also musicians and composers and i also play the piano and love to compose. i also love singing and have played many instruments in my life.....violin, clarinet, oboe...
