Heard a bit on the piece on Facebook and then found this.
@CHAS thank you for posting this!!! I've seen this before, but it makes me to happy to be able to see it again!!
I remember the first time I saw it, I was mesmerized by her hands. They look so powerful, and so completely under her musical control. Like she could play anything.

Thank you for reposting this memory of Apple.

Hands? You want to see some great hands?

@CHAS His hands are much bigger than Apple's (or mine for that matter!)
Also, it looks like he some flat(ish) technique peppered in there. My teacher and I have been talking about when to play with flat fingers (for example, when you want a fat melody note)....
OTOH, Apple's hands are standing up, and she really grabs the keyboard. I always found it amazing and compelling to see.

It was from the movie Amelie.

I miss Mary. She was very influential on my piano journey. Whenever I play the Aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations I think about her and how much she encouraged me to learn Bach.
Some memories.
