We had a small but pleasant and relaxed session at Gregory’s, with our usual mixture from Bach to Modern. Jerome Kern and Roger Eno are new to our composer list … now over 400! Despite the variety of pieces in the repertoire, by coincidence two of us played the same piece by Handel! Lorraine had an interesting pairing of Preludes in the same key by J. S. Bach and Dmitri Shostakovich.
