Music played on January 19, 2020

Host: Jackie

A second meeting in January!  The second event of the first of our new twice a month schedule.  

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.
