I am a Musician. I have known this since I was a young girl. I was born and raised in Mainz, Germany. When I was a little girl, my Father used to take me to the Christuskirche (the Christ Church) on Sundays, and my favorite part was listening to the angelic voices of the choir, and at the end, the organist would play a majestic piece.
One Sunday my Father had to talk with the Minister, and we went into one of the rooms of the church, and there it was - the most beautiful thing I had ever seen: a big, black Grand Piano. I walked up to it in awe and marveled at the old ivory keys, as I breathed the dusky fragrance of wood and varnish and touched the smooth keyboard that would become my personal road to enchantment. From that moment on I decided, that I was going to be a musician.
Shortly after that I started taking piano-lessons. Although along the way my journey in music, I encountered many challenges, but I never did regret that calling.
Music is so very important, and I feel deep gratitude to be part of this process, and to be able to appreciate classical music and to witness the wonders it does in people’s lives, especially during troubled times. We feel betrayed by Wall Street greed and fear bad political leadership, but our music will never betray us nor let us down, it will always give back and enrich us. The need for music is “hardwired” into our fabric, even infants and plants respond to it and understand it.
