  • 15 year old Jasmine was on her way home from school when she passed the public piano and played Clair de Lune. The station was very busy and the piano was not in the best condition for Debussy, but she managed to eclipse the noise and the chaos with her wonderful piano skills.

    One of my favorites, one of the most beautiful and touching pieces ever written... She played beautifully on an out of tune Piano, go for it, you have a gift young lady, use it, use it to bless others and glorify God! My great grandmother was a Concert Pianist and Clair De Lune is one of the pieces she first played, my daughter now plays, she loves DeBussy as does my son.

    What an amazingly talented young lady, in so many ways, not just at the keyboard.
    My sincerest and very best wishes to her, wherever the music takes her. And my thanks for some beautiful piano music here.
