Piano Street Magazine:
The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Does he have a moustache? Moustaches make their wearer quite the sex symbol. I should know. I'm Tom Selleck.

I highly recommend that everyone at least tries growing a moustache. It will do wonders for your piano playing.

of course, thalberg is sexy. he's a musician with a doctorate. for most single musicians - that alone causes great vibes of wonder. you see, you have to have a lot of motivation to get that far. if one can do that with their musical career - what else could they do? (usually women don't share this mental process).

also, he's christian. it's a nice combination.

i just celebrated 22 years of marriage with a baritone singer whose voice i love. we can share concerts and things - and never fight over the piano. it's nice to share music. the more things that you can share together - the better. my husband learned to ride a bike at 40. we cycle together, too. it's nice to share things in common - otherwise you don't have as much interesting stuff to talk about.
