🎵 Notes from March 5, 2023 meetup

Despite the two-meter high snowbanks lining most of our driveways, the weather had a noticeably spring-like atmosphere.  This put us in a good mood at Karin's and despite the modest turnout, there were several rounds of music played, including two duets.  The somewhat more intimate setting may have encouraged us to be a little more adventurous!  We welcomed new member Dave A.

Here's what was played:
  • Gregory: Toccata in D minor, by J. S. Bach
  • Dave A. and Karin (duet): Six Studies in Canon Form, #2, by R. Schumann, arr. by C. Debussy.
  • Jeff: Preludes Op. 17 #3, Op. 11 #12 and Op. 11 #10, by A. Scriabin
  • Allona: Invention #1, by J. S. Bach
  • Gregory: Lara’s Theme (from Dr. Zhivago), by Maurice Jarre
  • Jeff: Preludes Op. 16 #3, #4 and #2, by A. Scriabin
  • Dave A. and Karin (duet): Nocturne #5, by John Field
  • Gregory: An die Musik, by F. Schubert
  • Karin: Adagio BWV 974, by J. S. Bach/ Marcello
  • Jeff: Prelude Op. 11 #12, by A. Scriabin
