"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
Jean-Yves Thibaudet[3]- “The Girl with the Flaxen Hair” Jean-Yves Thibaudet 彈奏“致亞麻色秀發的女孩”
2009年,小雨有幸現場聆聽到Jean-Yves Thibaudet的一場鋼琴演出,他演奏了柏遼茲的“海盜”序曲,李斯特的第二鋼琴協奏曲,肖斯塔科維奇的Suite from Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District。演出結束後,有一個與劇場裏所有聽眾見麵的采訪。他身材高大,隨和,和藹,幽默。他告訴聽眾,他自己彈的鋼琴是在德國本土製造的Steinway & Sons,在德國本土製造的和在美國製造的Steinway & Sons,在音色上有分別。。。他很認真地回答了小聽眾們提出的幾個關於怎樣練習鋼琴的問題。。。
