Bernhard has not posted since Nov. 23.

Could we send him a note?

It is indeed strange that neither have posted for some time.

I think the 53rd thread on "Am i ready for the Fantasy Impromptu" probably killed them both off, as it did me.

LOL.  Me, too.

I find myself longing for more of Bernhard's excruciatingly detailed explanations of fingering strategies for the Sinfonia.  8)  I need a regular dose of Bernhardism or I start to feel, well, sloppy and slipshod!  Bernhard is bracing, like the wind off the North Sea.  :)

Seriously, come back, Bernhard!  :'(

That is true.

I wonder how many Pianostreet members will kick the bucket this year.

Maybe we could open a book.

  I hope none of the people i know on this forum die, honestly that would make me very sad. Thalb , stevie, pianistimo, Paris , mayla, etude, quantum, dazzer, gruffalo,arensky  are on my must not die list. Randomly.

If everyone asks a member of their family to post a copy of their death certificate, we should be able to keep e record.

unannounced?

he would know the forum would prefer to know if he is gone for a while, it was quite noticable when his presence left us...

my theory is, that he had a fatal ilness, and didnt want to tell us because wed worry, and just went away and died without telling us.

im trying to be optimistic of course.

I think Stevie is right. He was such a nice man, he probably did not want us to worry us, so he passed away without telling us.

My theory is he was stabbed by a student who brought his Hanon into a lesson.

I will be randomly upset if this is true.

I thought that was really funny  ;D

Maybe he's moving....

Maybe he's writting his book...

Maybe someone in the family died...

Ah could act as a semi-knowledgeable temporary bernhard replacement ;D

I was told a while ago he was moving to Brazil. So I guess, we should wait until he has settled down.
