I listen to this because I like listening to it.
I adore the music of Vítězslava Kaprálová. This "April" Prelude is played by Antonin Kubalek. The tone of this piano! The touch of these fingers on the keys!
And I like the idea that April in Arkansas feels like April in Czechoslovakia (or wherever she was when she composed this -- somewhere "over yonder"). I can smell fresh grass after gentle rain...intuit early flowers...and there! -- the first butterfly!
Under the spell of these purling, daydreaming notes, I will also think about the atmosphere of a gentle friendship.......
"April"
