Look Out, Tom!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Double the Fun!

Last night my friend, Erin, and I gave a recital featuring various solo works, four-hands pieces, and the first movement of Poulenc's Concerto for Two Pianos. The school concerto competition is next Tuesday, and we plan on entering our piece. I love playing ensemble music. As a pianist, it's easy to get lonely. :) Collaboration is just too fun! 

Poulenc's Sonata for Four Hands

Scherzo from Rachmaninov's Six Morceaux 

Poulenc's Concerto for Two Pianos

Look at all that support! We were truly blessed!

(It's funny, but I know exactly what part I'm playing here.) 

This is becoming a favorite and comfortable place.

Recitals are stressful, but somehow an audience makes the music come alive for me. With all the hours spent alone in a practice room, it's refreshing to play for other people. It's a one-shot deal, but it makes me want to go all out! Can't wait to do this again!!
