Lena’s fingers trembled as she reached out. “How much?”
Lena had been searching for three years.
Lena nodded. “Net Vir Jou. Bobby van Jaarsveld. Piano solo.”
Here’s a short story inspired by the search for the sheet music of “Net Vir Jou” by Bobby van Jaarsveld for piano.
She gestured to an upright piano in the corner, its wood scarred but its keys clean. Lena sat down, placed the sheet on the stand, and began.
When Mrs. Visser returned, she held a single, coffee-stained sheet. No glossy cover. No barcode. Just handwritten notation in blue ink, with the title at the top in careful cursive: Net Vir Jou – arr. B. van Jaarsveld, transcr. P. Visser, 2011.
Net vir jou, Oupa. Net vir jou.
“I arranged it for a student once,” Mrs. Visser said softly. “He wanted to play it for his oupa in hospital. The oupa passed that same night. The student never came back for the music.”
