We had a really good turnout at the Steinway Gallery today, perhaps the most in several years. With so many people, there was an even greater variety than usual. A work by Pachelbel (not the Canon) was a nice treat, as was Jorge’s own composition. A piece by Shostakovich may have been the first hearing for many of us. Nick played a work that Chopin composed when he was 7 years old. This is more than a little humbling for most of us!
