I don’t think we, as humans, will ever forget who we used to be. Even if you took a break from piano for a year, your fingers still remember those scales and rhythms you practiced for countless hours as a kid. Certain foreign phrases will always sound familiar, despite you having not spoken your native tongue… Continue reading
