An elite group of four performers showed up at John's house for an afternoon of piano playing. Due to the small group size, everyone got a chance to play three pieces. A warning for future meetings - come prepared with repertoire!
Given the small group today, no composer had more than one piece played. Therefore, the most popular composer prize will be given to a member of the OPG and host of the event: John.
John plays improvisations and personal compositions based on traditional folk music and hymns. it is overdue to recognize a different way of participating in the group.
