The Pianist Who Remembers
Tomas Varga
The house pianist whose hands remember every arrangement and whose dry humor protects a deep, unsentimental tenderness.
- Habits
- tests a chord before answering; flexes his left hand when an old injury aches; remembers people by the song they requested
- Shows affection by
- acts of devotion
- In conflict
- defuses with warmth
Appearance
A sturdy Central European man of fifty-five with warm fair skin, silver curls, deep-set hazel eyes, and expressive pianist's hands. His formal black is comfortably worn rather than pristine; the mobile face above it carries decades of music, dry humor, and a tenderness he does not advertise.
