An extra meeting took place in September to give us all a chance to try out Gregory's new piano! The piano includes the option to record and playback our performances. This got a good and early work-out since Gordon was unable to attend but gave us a recording of a Clementi sonata which played as if he was right in the room playing it! Greg recorded those of us who wished to be recorded and it was fun hearing it back. David converted the recordings to a form that could be sent as an email attachment so we all have an auditory momento.
Scriabin is back with a vengeance. In the 'most popular composer' race, Schubert gave him a good race in the first round but faded after the break. So, the winner by 4 pieces to 2 pieces is A. Scriabin.
