for a reason, i could not continue it. i miss my students there. some of them very enthusiastic some not really.
it was so sad that the last lesson incidentally i gave, was an explanation of songs composed on minor scale (both harmonic and melodic). i remembered that day (end of may 2012) i felt so gloomy inside after the class was over. the same feeling i got when i decided to pull myself out of the music school.
the song that i used as a sample in explaining the minor scale was 'i'll wait for you' performed by acoustic cafe
.'i'll wait for you' is the music theme of a french musical movie back in the year 1964 by michael legrand titled: le parapluie de cherbourg
(the umbrella of cherbourg). the leading lady was catherine deneuve.that song was sung by great name such as frank sinatra, astrud gilberto, connie francis, etc.
here is the lyric of the song:
If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me, till I'm holding you
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
Then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms
If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you
And forevermore sharing your love
until now, i am still often in tears when listening to this song. it is so sentimental, and there is a little regret of choosing that song that day.

Even flowers doesn't bloom forever a saying from my late father. Thank you for mentioning my name and I really appreciated.
