      @CHAS His hands are much bigger than Apple's (or mine for that matter!)

      Also, it looks like he some flat(ish) technique peppered in there. My teacher and I have been talking about when to play with flat fingers (for example, when you want a fat melody note)....

      OTOH, Apple's hands are standing up, and she really grabs the keyboard. I always found it amazing and compelling to see.

          I miss her. Thanks for posting that.

          I was fortunate enough to visit her shortly after that.

          By the way what’s the name of that piece? I heard it the other day at the local organic market.

                    Did you like it or not? I'm curious. I've heard about it but haven't seen it

                      I very much liked it at the time. I don’t remember much about it now.

                        I miss Mary. She was very influential on my piano journey. Whenever I play the Aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations I think about her and how much she encouraged me to learn Bach.

                        Some memories.

                        Mary and her Mother at her Piano Party back in 2006. Wow! 20 years ago.

                              Apple and justme were the two people who welcomed me to the old Coffee Room so many years ago. It's been quite a trip since then.
