We had a fairly full house at Ottawa Pianos, playing on Yamaha's finest, and managed to finish just as the snowstorm started nipping at our heels. We welcomed Lianna, who performed a less known piece by Czech composer Leoš Janáček. There were a few other composers who we have not commonly heard, as well as Anton Arensky another new one for us.
