Charlie that story actually brought tears to my eyes. What an amazing coincidence and perfect example of something being meant to be. How special that you got to be a part of such an intimate performance.

I got goosebumps reading this Charlie. I can’t even begin to imagine what millions of people and families had to endure, so it’s always interesting reading intimate, personal stories like this. 90 minutes of music in such a fabulous venue delivered by a person with such an emotional background must have been one of those lifetime experiences that one will remember forever. Thanks for sharing it with the rest of the world!

Dear Charlie,

What an amazing story! When the stars are aligned, very special things happen. I would have loved to attend the recital since Sarah is such an exponent of Bach’s works. You must be a brilliant pianist coz Mozart began composing some of his symphonies 40-odd when he was just 8 years old.

Like others mentioned, this brought me to tears, Charlie. I am in awe on absolutely every level. It had to be a very special evening for everyone, including Sarah, knowing that her father had such a connection to this family. Oh my but this touches me–I think this must have felt transformative for everyone in attendance. I’m now off to read your previous story…I may have read it before, but it will mean even more now. ox

$30 with a glass of wine for 90 minutes with a great musician is a steal! Also learned a great story from this. Thanks, Charlie!
