The video was uploaded Sept 1 2020. It is footage of a performance in Hamburg, which I had the fortune of seeing live and watching this clip brought back fond memories. If you haven't seen the video, do check it out!

I know the feeling well. For months now I have been practicing these famous impromptus by Chopin & Schubert, played so effortlessly by Nobuyuki Tsujii in this clip. I can just now only barely hit the notes, with my eyes clued to the music sheets. Nobu cannot see the scores.

October 24 News came that Berlin's Tegel airport (TXL) is closing next month, on November 8. In May 2017, I flew there to see Nobuyuki Tsujii perform with conductor #VladimirAshkenazy and the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin (DSO Berlin) in the Berliner Philharmonie. A joyful time! But with COVID pandemic, the retirement of Mo. Askenazy, and now this news -- how fleeting it all is. Continued at Farewell, Berlin Tegel Flughafen
