Mary Rose Kent 2 years ago (edited)

I wanted so badly to be a classical pianist, and when I was 11 or 12, a friend of my grandmother needed to get rid of her spinet piano for space reasons and we inherited it. I taught myself how to read music, but I never got quite to where I wanted to be. In my 20s I joined a choir and ended up singing Soprano 1 for 30 years in successively better choirs. I sang Beethoven’s Ninth with the San Francisco Symphony as part of their expansion choir. I got to sing Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder (Songs for Dead Children) with the Berkeley Symphony while Kent Nagano was still its conductor. Maestro Nagano has the most beautiful hands I have ever seen…they’re like butterflies when he conducts.

A Man Was Selling This At A "Garage" Sale He Was Having In His Airplane Hangar In Mccall, Id And I Had To Have It Because It Was So Unique

He gave it to me for only $20 because I was so enamoured and when I got home I found that the signature was alice asmar who was displayed at the smithsonian. She had spent time with his family when he was a boy and sketch these in his backyard in 1961

Found this while thrift shopping at a WonderRex recycling store here in Japan. Saw this beauty on the shelf, and that they were only asking 5000 yen (equivalent to about 50 dollars, maybe a bit more). The edge was quite flimsy soft, so with some love, and DIY good items I fixed it up to be one of a kind, my handbag🥰💪🧤🧰⚙️👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🇺🇸🇯🇵🌏🗻🗾
