🎵 Notes from January 4 2026 meetup

Our first session of the new year started well, and for January, sun and no snow made it above average!  Our usual good variety of pieces included a first performance of one by Anton Brucker, a fairly well known composer who for some reason has not been performed at our group before. Pianists are encouraged to do this again!
