We had an opportunity for an in-real-life (IRL) and masked 😷 meeting today at the Ottawa Pianos store. Pianists enjoyed a mix of music from Bach to the contemporary era, including a composer apparently not played before at any session in our group's history: Philip Glass.
Here's what was played:
- Gregory: Introduction and Fugato, by Cuthbert Harris
- Hedda: Misty, by Erroll Garner
- Jeff: Prelude Op. 7 #3 and Op. 11 #10, by A. Scriabin
- Erin: Sinfonia #2, by J. S. Bach
