Ólafsson draws a parallel between the three verses of the piece and the three characters in the video - do you think they match?

What a bleeding stupid question? What condiscension Why don't you take your market stall and set it up somewhere else?
@gustavolosio
I love the composer, i´ts sublime the interpretation, but i´dont very like the story. I think that opaque the music. I´think that, sorry!

@@hoipolloicassidy1594 I should hate to live in a world where the handicapped cannot enjoy walking or the uneducated the blessing of musical appreciation merely because they are working class or unenlightened by musical taste and knowledge/education. All need training wheels before riding on a two-wheeled bicycle.

I've listened to this hundreds of times but never commented. It's so delicate and the sound is pure yet very deep, just so good!
