Flower Duet From MADAME BUTTERFLY

Over the past years literally NOBODY sent me anything, not even a dime.  This brings me the message that you just don't care, whether I live or not.  Obviously this way I'm  unable to make a recording of the other 3 seasons (this was among my plans), furthermore I'm thinking of taking even this recording down. (as of March 1, 2025) 

The previous remark/"description" was this: 

Short version: 
Please support me with a few dollars - or just 50 cents... ! 
(There's no such amount as "too small"! Anything, really.) 
www.paypal.com/paypalme/toseethesun 

Details: 
Hey guys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, I'm really glad that so many of you like this ! Every week 4-6 people share this recording of mine, and many more people give me a "like" (without sharing).  This feels great, thank you !   

If you - on top of this - would also consider giving me (sending me) 1 dollar, or even a dime, a quarter... only a tiny little amount that you feel comfortable with... the change that you would give to a homeless person on the street... then I could continue to make a living as a musician. Nothing is "too small" !!! 

Because , you know, when I must do "something else" to pay the bills (something that I do only for the money, no vocation whatsoever), then this takes away my precious (and limited) Time, and during the hours of this type of "survival work"  I obviously cannot practice, I cannot make new recordings, cannot prepare the projects in my head or on the computer, cannot fix a cable, etc.   After work I'm tired,  for even trying to sit down with my instruments... I just take a shower, eat something, sleep... and the next day it starts over.  Which is totally normal for so many of you - we both know what hard work is!  But the day consists of only 24 hours for me as well.  Then some of you may 'suggest' "okay, then don't sleep so much  ;-) " ! As if I'd be a robot.. but I'm a human being.  You know, the nature of artistic creation is such, that it needs a tranquil and well-rested mind - and the same is true, for instance, when I drive a car, or when I fly an aircraft.  If I try to live 2-3 lives at the same time, sooner or later something (or someone) would suffer... 

Anyway, I'm asking  EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU who tends to like this recording of mine, to send me at least a ridiculously small amount.  I mean, is 1 dollar too much to ask?  No worries, then please send me 50 cents !  If  1000 people would send me three or four dollars  each month, I could spend all my time with what I REALLY want to do - for instance continuing the production of this recording, the Summer, then Autumn/Fall... And I have many (MANY !) more project ideas in my head. But my beautiful instrument often just rests at home while I have to do "something else"... 

On this particular recording that you just liked and/or shared: 
Zoltan Lengyel (myself) on church organ, with Berthold Oppitz on violin. 

And most certainly you're welcome to check the other recordings of this same page, too  ! (They were made with the same artistical standards.)
