@Vidhya Bashyam Beautiful job, Vidhya! I particularly appreciate how you kept everything very tranquil and the LH in a consistent sotte voce as backdrop to the main RH line.

Re: Springtime Recital
I’d like to play too. Not sure what yet, possibly Prokofiev’s Mercutio from Romeo & Juliet opus 75 and an opus 11 prelude by Scriabin, or a Respighi nocturne.
