I hope you enjoyed this video with my mom. To anyone out there that is going through the loss of a loved one, my heart goes out to you. P.S. I have struggled to find a suitable title and thumbnail for this video for many reasons. If you have seen this video floating around and are confused by this, I hope you understand.

Thank you for sharing this with us Nahre. I was very touched and moved by this. Your mom is so cool!

@sylviagiafferri381 Год назад

It's really great you did this. I loved to do this with my father. He past away 2 month ago. He wanted to learn piano but his mum didn't want to. So he never learned. And as I wanted to learned piano as a child. He repeat the same. So I 've learned alone and with friends later. He was always sad He couldn't play. I never understand why he didn't by a piano and learned.

My mom had dementia as well-caring for a parent suffering memory issues is sometimes VERY hard! My heart goes out to you, and please remember to seek help if you need it! No one should face such burdens alone. ❤️

@DeeEllEff 2 года назад

As someone who was raised by his already-elderly maternal grandmother who eventually died (at 101) from Alzheimer’s Disease, I think that if you possibly can do something like that with him, you probably should do that. Time, especially that spent with loved ones, is such a limited and invaluable resource in our lives, y’know?!

@xelacremant7396 2 года назад

When your mother said "this is the first time I wrote music", I cried. It's so beautiful to me, the idea of commemorating a loss with something as meaningful as a first time. And for a mother to experience a first time is another layer of poetry. This is a beautiful gift you gave her. A precious, loveable present. You must be a very kind and caring person :) Sorry for your loss.

Nahre Sol, you are one of those special teachers. I am a retired opera singer and a voice teacher. But this reminded me of some classes I took with a very special art teacher. I was in my late 40s, and hadn't touched a crayon or paintbrush since I was belittled by an art teacher when I was 12. We all have within us, an artist, a singer, a dancer, and a composer. Thank you for helping us all to remember that expression, is our humanity.

@operaticxingenue 2 года назад

I LOST it when your mom came on camera and dedicated the song to her mom. I’m literally sobbing

@jimdruckenmiller4612 2 года назад

In one simple creative effort, through her song, Nahre's mom managed to tie 3 generations of her family together. Thank You, Nahre for sharing your family's love and remembrance of your Grandma. Your thoughtfulness in helping your mom during this sad and hard time is truly amazing. p.s. I thought the accompaniment behind mom's great melody was pretty good too, whoever wrote that might just have a chance at being a real musician. :-)

@joec2446 2 года назад

Nahre, this video is so special. I recently lost a parent and due to covid quarantine rules we had had to say goodbye over video, it was strange but intimate at the same time, because we can see and hear everyone very personal farewell very clearly. Composing a melody as a farewell reminds me of that, the process must have been very healing. Thank you so much for sharing. Its a sweet song.

I'm a Chinese here and just started watching several of your previous videos about piano practicing. However, this is by far the best video by a pianist I've seen on RU-vid. The moment your mom starts playing her first composition brought me to tears. Best wishes to you and your loved ones and may music bring happiness and fond memories to every human.

@russellszabadosaka5-pindin849 2 года назад

Thank you, Nahre. I lost my dad on May 26, six months ago and I’m still grieving. As an “only child”, it’s been hard to process the loss of my parents & grandparents and although I’m happily married, I feel alone in the world. I’m a sync licensing producer and the music I’ve completed since returning to work has all been based on ideas from before my dad’s illness and passing. I think it’s time to write something new. Thx for the inspiration. ❤️

@SamBrady3 2 года назад

@flonzaley6092 2 года назад

Not only a moving family document, but an excellent example of 'outreach' - introducing a non-musician to improvisation and composition in a non-intimidating fashion. Music is our best friend in life!

I been thinking of my mom lately, and we had this thing where on Sunday we get together and can only chat with each other in puns about our week. So I been jotting down lyrics in puns. Then I see this and feel more motivated to keep going on this. I love your mom, she is special, and funny.

@derrickmickle5491 2 года назад

My condolences to you and your mother for your loss. Your mother captures so much of your grandmother's vibrancy and joy in her perky composition. Knowing the background behind its composition moved me to tears hearing it. It is music as a pure expression of love and memory. Powerful stuff. Thank you for so generously sharing this deeply personal and intimate experience with us.

@jeffreykparker 2 года назад

Sorry for the loss of your grandmother. You video works are enthralling and lead me to deep insight, always wrapping your explorations in humility ("the first effort was a flop"), dedication, generosity and love. So fun hearing the two of you communicate in Hangugeo. Thank you for this and every work that you publish.

What a gift your grandmother, mom, and you have given the world. Thank you so much. It's clear there was a lot or work put in this one. It is simply wonderful. Please tell mom thank you for sharing her journey with us.

For an old man like me… watching you two work on this… it reminded me to use my own creative leanings to help others. Thank you! ❤️
