🎵 Notes from September 16, 2023 meetup

In addition to several familiar pieces, we heard a number of new works at Steinway Gallery.  Highlights included Perry performing a Cuban composer unknown to most of us, and Gordon playing a piece by Czerny that was quite different from his vast opus of technical works. 

Here’s what was played:

• Gregory: Old Adam, by William Bolcom
• Perry: La Comparsa, by Ernesto Lecuona
• Jeff: Prelude in B Minor, by S. Rachmaninoff
• Karin: Prelude from Suite Bergamasque, by C. Debussy
• Françoise (vocal) and Randy (piano accompaniment): Les Anges, by Erik Satie
• Gordon: Impromptu Passioné Op. 754 #6, by Carl Czerny
• Grace: Divenire, by Ludovico Einaudi
• Gordon:  Legende #1 (Op. 16 #1), by Ignace Paderewski
• Randy: Valse, by Evgeny Grinko
• Jeff: Preludes Op. 11 #12, Op. 17 #3 and Op. 11 #10, by A. Scriabin
• Françoise: Moonlight Nocturne, by Catherine Rollin
• Grace: Fantaisie Impromptu, by F. Chopin
