I was so not prepared when my mom told me yesterday morning that I will be playing the piano for the wedding at 4pm. I was shocked with seethed curiousity and ill-disguised excitement and I search daintily on my sisters file of piano sheets to find only 2 noble sheets, Gaano Kita Kamahal and My Heart Will Go On.
I hurriedly practiced the piano sheets in my Aunt's place who happens to have a piano. I barely had less than 3 hours to practice and with so much vigor I luckily to have mastered My Heart Will Go On but a so-so performance on Gaano Kita Kamahal.
While at the wedding ceremony, I preluded songs from the church and the opening hymn. I was told to play love songs while the couple is signing their marriage contract. I was on the verge of so much pressure and when the moment where I was told to play, the Gaano Kita Kamahal sheet was lying askew on the piano sheet bar and eventually dropped down, so I have to shift song to what I am really an expert of without a piano piece, and I played Tell Me by Side A. I played it beautifully without a glitch
and after a moment someone told me that the song was for broken-hearted and I just suddenly run through the lyrics and OH MY GOD..it really is..
I was so embarassed but well I learn from my mistake. I just recovered the last part of the ceremony where I played My Heart Will Go On and Gaano Kita Kamahal splendidly and some were singing while I was playing..It made me feel good but I was embarrased of what I played, on the second note I have to understand the lyrics.hehe.
