Host: Jackie
A snowstorm the day before threatened today’s event. But ,fortunately, it cleared enough so that there were only a few absences.
This was one of the few times that two duets were performed during the same session.
In the most popular composer competition, two composers had two pieces played: Haydn and JS Bach. However, for Haydn, it was two movements of the same sonata. Bach had two different pieces, including a duet. Using that as a tie breaker, I am declaring JS Bach the winner of the January (second half) prize.
A reminder to all Group members - starting this month, there will be two groups meeting each month for you to attend. But, you can only sign-up for one group per month.
