Livingroomconcert Twitter Auction for Marco Borsato

On the 23rd of December 2009 the time was there: the livingroomconcert for the Twitter Auction for Marco Borsato! In the afternoon I got in the car to the Borsato residence, where I was received in a very friendly and hospitable way by Marco and his family. De ambiance was relaxed, cozy and comfortable. Proudly Marco told me his daughter had just started piano lessons, and of course she showed me her first lesson booklet.

When the whole family sat down on the comfy couches, with something to drink and to eat for everyone, I got seated behind the piano and played. One by one I played songs from Sense: See and Taste, Choice, Sensation and Bittersweet. For all the members of the family that just celebrated their birthday that month, I played the song “Your heart will know mine”, especially now in this time where you can just enjoy each others company. Without words, without signs, purely by sense. Closing off the first part was “Senses”, the song in which all the senses come together to one experience, one moment.

And then there was time for a little break, and to get some new drinks. The kids decided to put on warm clothes and enjoy the snow in the back yard. In the mean time, Marco, Leontien and their friends once again settled on the couches to enjoy the second half. From Hear and Feel to Voices of the Past, a song that is still very intriguing in the acoustic version as opposed to the studio version. A song that can, at the same time, give you the feeling that is described by Won’t you come back: pain, loss and a sort of melancholy that somehow also includes hope. Hope for something better. That same bit of hope that is expressed in Strange, in honour of the loved ones that passed away from us this past year or before that, family or friends. How strange that the world just keeps on moving, without them. A feeling that many will recognise and be reminded of in these upcoming Christmas Days. A feeling which hopefully Rainbow Thoughts can enlighten a bit: the power of positive thinking and how those thoughts can be transformed into tangible things: a touch, a hug, a get together with friends, like this afternoon.

The closing song was Zweven, a song that is my wish for the Borsato family as much as it is for everyone else for the upcoming holidays and the new year: the feeling that everything is a little lighter, a little more energetic and that you can look into the world with a positive gaze and think: today I’m floating!

That feeling was exactly what I had this day, and with a lot of pleasure and joy I look back on a beautiful afternoon, a cozy get together, and I want to thank the Borsato family for their hospitality and openness. I wish you all happy holidays and an inspiring, energetic and marvellous 2010!

Jolanda Peverelli - Saturday 26 December 2009 - 08:49Hee Laura,

Wat heb je het allemaal mooi omschreven! Ik heb bijna het gevoel dat ik er door je blog een klein beetje bij was. ;)
In gedachten was ik er zeker om je te steunen (alsof je dat nodig had ;) pfff).

Gaaf gedaan meissie, stop die maar mooi in je rugzakje met mooie ervaringen ;)

Veel liefs,
Jolanda

Mooi om te lezen! Gave ervaring voor je, lijkt me. Hopelijk geeft het je muzikale carriere een duwtje in de rug.

Prettige jaarwisseling en veel geluk, liefde & gezondheid voor 2010!

Ciao,
