The Luminous Moon

This video is an experiment in piano four-hands. Normally, for piano four-hands, two players sit at one piano, with one playing the high part and the other the low.

Instead, here I video myself playing each part — one at a time — and then combine them.

Two at the same keyboard, four hands moving as one.
To the casual eye, it might seem intimate — and perhaps it is,
but not in the way the world imagines.

Beneath the great silver lantern of the sky,
their music rises like mist,
carrying a quiet vow to something larger than either of them.
Each hand is a voice, each voice a current in the same river,
and the river itself flows toward the moon.

For a few shining moments, there are no players, no notes, no boundaries.
Only light on ivory, only sound becoming silence,
only the soft, impossible mystery
of being human together
under a moon so luminous
it outshines all misunderstanding.
