puredream Tchaikovsky.

Piccolo solo. Second movement?

Twenty one freaking notes played in three seconds.

The other day my Dad and I watched part of a special on Tchaicovsky together and watched the piccolo player grit her teeth! I loved listening to the music and I think my Dad did too. It was nice.

Today while listening to music on the way home from work with my Dad he got really excited. A song he thought was really cool came on. So we sat in the driveway and listened to it. He was really into it, even played a little air guitar. It was nice. Then he turns to me with a smile and says, "Well it's not 21_notes_in_3_seconds but it's pretty cool hey?"

I smiled.

I connected more with my Dad in that two or three seconds than I have ever connected to him in my life. He said more than he has ever said. He appreciated and recognized my passion for music and shared with me his. And that he does love and appreciate music. He remembered!!

It was a father discovery moment?

Yes.

Thanks Dad.

the chief of the multicolored monky clan i wish my father was an alcoholic. If he was then he'd have an excuse to be an asshole and we could ship him off to AA meetings. Unfortunately, they don't have EBA-Evil Bastards Anonymous. 051003
