Summary: A lovely girl and a piano meet. She is nervous, but curious towards the other creature - the piano. And cautiously like a deer she approaches the piano. The girl and the piano slowly and carefully get to know one another.

But suddenly a naughty boy intrudes the piano! "Who does he think he is!?" A conflict between a classical pianist and a jazz pianist... A meeting between two extremes... A meeting between two people, whom at first glance may seem as great individualists and perhaps have little in common, but if they try to communicate and understand each other, something beautiful can be born from their meeting... and still maintaining their own personalities. |
La rencontre d'un piano et d'une fille charmante. Elle est un peu nerveuse, mais
curieuse à l'égard du piano.
Précautionneusement, ils apprennent peu à peu à se connaître. Un garnement passe
par là et entend la musique.
Il se rue sur le piano et se met à jouer un air, sans prendre conscience de la
fille.
