Dear Vladimir: 

 Jackie和Irene合奏   Jackie Plays duet with Irene

昨天下午，Jackie去了她朋友的家，整个下午都在弹钢琴。她说她有来自Vladimir，哈里发，汉斯和摩西的一百个乐谱，两个演奏了50多首各种乐曲，古典，阿拉伯，爵士，俄罗斯，探戈，韩国等。应该是下午2：30到7：30，然而弗拉基米尔和其他人对女孩们的演奏表示高度评价，她想停也停不了。后来她从弗拉基米尔那里又得到了额外的一百首曲子，所以我不得不在8点左右到那儿去接她。 在我到达门口之前，我就听到了她们悠扬的琴声。真的很甜美。所以当我进去以候，我坐下来让她们继续弹。两位”大师“演奏的钢琴二重奏真是非凡，太棒了。我觉得空气似乎已经凝固了，因为这音乐只属于天堂。但我还是觉得有点遗憾，因为这只是钢琴二重奏，是打击乐器。 我想象如果其中有小提琴演奏主旋律，那会是怎样的？激动人心，千变万化，浪漫激情，滴水般清亮。如果有长笛，那将会是如此脉脉深情，遥远悠长，意境深幽。如果有单簧管双簧管，那将是如此情深意长，响亮和澎湃。如果有各种各样的鼓在一起，那节奏就会如此明亮，欢快和开朗。 我想下次我可以邀请汉斯和威廉姆斯把他们的音乐也放在一起，特别为两个女孩写二重奏，然后女孩们可以去音乐会演出。这一次，弗拉基米尔，摩西在黑暗中倾听，如果他们亲自参与其中，那就会完全有所不同。他们应该组成一个小乐队，一起演奏，尝试各种音乐和舞蹈。真有趣！Jackie和朋友已经在期待下次了。

Yesterday afternoon, Jackie went to her friend’s home, played piano duet the whole afternoon. She said she got a hundred music scores, from Vladimir, Caliphate, Hans, and Moses, and two of them played more than 50 of various pieces, classic, Arabian, Jazz, Russian, tango, Korean, etc. It was supposed to be from 2:30 to 7:30 pm , however Vladimir and others  gave high appreciations to girl’s play,  she tried to stop but cannot. Later she got additional hundred from Vladimir, so I had to be there late around 8 o’clock to pick her up. I heard their melodious music before I reached the door. It's really sweet. So when I went in, I sat down and let them go on playing . Two ”masters“ played piano duet was really extraordinary, so wonderful. I thought the air seems to have solidified, as the music only belongs to heaven. But I still feel a little thing missing, because this is only piano duet, percussion instruments. I was imagining if there were a violin in the middle, playing the main melody, what would happen? Agitate, with a thousand turns, full of  romantic passion, dripping clear. If there were flute, it would  be so affectionate, distant, meaningful. If there were clarinet or oboe, that would be so deep feelings, loud and surging. Even if there were all kinds of drums, the rhythm would be so bright, cheerful. I thought that next time I could definitely invite Hans and Williams to put their music together, write duet especially for the two girls, and then girls can go concert shows.  This time, Vladimir, Moses were in the dark listening, it would be different if they were involved. They should definitely form a small band, playing music together, playing all kinds of music, and dancing. How fun! Jackie and  friend were looking forward to next time already.
