Artist History There is a very dear old building on the corner of a certain downtown street that twinkles on chilly evenings. There are just four floors in the building, and the window glass is stained red-yellow-green. The staircase is wooden and it creaks on the tenth step, and the ceilings are too tall for ladders. Dusty crystal chandeliers dip quietly into the long halls, seeming both stoic and sad as most things that were once grand tend to. In a particular apartment on the third floor of the building, there is music even when no one is playing gramophones or instruments nor singing out loud. There is a cello in the peeling wallpaper, a viola under the scuffed Persian rug, a double bass keeping the parlor window ajar. There is an old wooden piano by a door, and it laughs when tickled even though most of the time it tries to be serious. There’s a treble clef in a cup of tea. An eighth note takes a bath in the claw-foot tub. There’s a singing voice in the fireplace flew, and it likes to wink at the old piano and whisper saucily to it in French, especially when no one is looking. This particular apartment on the third floor is lived in by one Miss Lenni Jabour...
