In this new edition of Vignettes of a Pianist, Megan Yim offers a new foreword capturing how the uproars and silences of life have affected her relationship with the instrument - and with an additional five vignettes, too!
Years have revealed to Megan that the gift of music is exactly that: a gift. It is a luxury and a privilege that not everyone has access to: hearing it, learning it, but most of all sharing it. What does being a classically trained musician mean? What are the responsibilities? The duties?
In Vignettes of a Pianist, Megan retells and re-creates the moments that are felt behind the curtains, the moments that are not applauded or awarded. Moments that most individuals forget, or they may not even have knowledge of: the awkward walk up to the stage before a performance, the frightening wait outside the examination room, or the silent drive to a piano lesson you did not practice for. To play and create classical music is a gift to be cherished and shared, and Megan hopes she can share hers.
