[Alfred Deahl recalls hearing his older sister Irene practising the piano] Well, she was very good. I used to love listening to her playing Beethoven at home, practising. And my Dad was a terrible – oh, he was awful – I’ve seen her in tears. He used to – she would be playing, and I remember very often I would hear, ‘That’s not damn well right!’ He used to storm into the front room, ‘Play it again!’ And he’d make her play it a hundred bloody times before she got it what he called ‘right’, and she used to be playing and crying at the same time. |
