Lovers of music and animals, Dennis and his wife Chee get much pleasure out of recognizing the comedic moments in daily life. Around the dinner table, they tell the story of arriving in Baden-Baden, the spa town in Germany to present a piano recital. As soon as they got out of the car, they noticed an insect with a broken leg. After such famous clients like Caracalla, Brahms, Napoleon and Queen Victoria, the little insect had come to the spa to mend its ailment as well.
And the old lady who came up to wish them “plenty of oxygen”. What’s more precious than being able to breathe? A beautiful wish, especially for pianists.
