On Musicals,,,

My mother never liked musicals, and I could never figure out why. My mother was very practical in some ways, but mostly I remember her as being very creative...and not liking musicals doesn't fit with that profile. I think she had a mental block, which but for that mental block, she would have loved musicals.

Who does not adore life set to music? Dancing. Rhythm. Continuity. I have always thought that the only thing missing from ordinary life is a musical score. My life would have mostly piano music, since there is nothing musical that a piano can't express. What a powerful phrase that is..."nothing musical that a piano can't express."

I should learn to play the piano.
