🎵 Notes from the September 24, 2022 meetup

Venue: Steinway Gallery

We had the biggest turnout in some time today.  Perhaps the holiday season is finally winding down and more of us can get back to the keyboard!

We had a treat today with Lyndsay playing her own composition.  All composers, please feel free to do this again.  We heard a new composer, Valerie Capers, and either another new or an infrequently played one: Carlos Gustavino.
