My father liked songs very much. He had also told me in a song the story of our Tsar Ferdinand’s family [8]: how he was invited to become our tsar and how he married Maria Luisa, and how their children were born and how Maria Luisa died when one of their daughters was born. I learned this story from the song, not from the books. He used to sing songs like that. He didn’t sing in a choir, he was just a romantic. He liked to have fun, and everything to be nice. Even when my friends visited me he would say, ‘Come on now, each one of you is going to recite a poem.’ They were embarrassed by that. I wasn’t embarrassed but just imagine when friends come to visit you and somebody makes them recite poems. He liked to make our meetings more refreshing through the arts and to make us familiar with interesting things through them.
