I brought it back to the States but had to sell..pre internet and no parts as they only made about 2500 of them over a 5 year period... wonderful car in Europe...Autostrada etc.... I got pulled over (waved down) by a Carabinieri for doing 115 mph going into work 0530...empty roads. He really wanted to look at the car and gave me a 2 mille 'ticket' (paid in cash) like 3 bucks I think.
I didn't have any money on me so he asked what I had and there it is.
 
"Trapped in a prison..."
 
"Superstitious children..."


 
This piece is my favorite concerto and Sarah is amazing...she is much older now but I have followed her for quite some time....

Oft wondered, what Tchaikovsky would have thought seeing a young girl in a pink dress, with her timing and grasp of the composition in a video like this.
 
Kalush. "Stefania"

He wrote the song about his Mother. and his home. His mother's name is Stefania, and his home is Ukraine.


"I'll always find my way home, even if all roads are destroyed".
 
A couple of other parent songs.

Mother


Grandmother

 
I listened to a group called black Market Trust. They play and sing songs of the Great American Songbook using guitar, violin, clarinet bass, drum kit. Sort of gypsy jazz Stefane Grupelli and Django Rhinehart meets Klezmer meets Frank Sinatra.

Pre Covid Mrs JP & I saw Jersey Boys - didn't love the plot but the music was amazing
 
Has to be this for me. Now that my daughter has finnished grease with the school, she is in the middle of rehersals for Snow White with a local dramatics group. She has been cast as the Evil Queen.
She has just auditioned for the part as Eponine in Les Miserables, Had to sing On My Own, no problem she did it at The Oswestry Youth Music Festival a year ago, where she came first in her age group and brought the adjudicator to tears.
