Re: Autumn Recital!
I hope to play something — not sure what yet. Perhaps Stephen Hough’s transcription of My Favorite Things plus one other piece.

Re: Group 3
@Harriet Kaplan There’s a long lyrical tenor line that’s entirely carried by the thumb (and echoed by the soprano/fifth finger). I’ll do my best Adele attempt at it…

Hi All! Looking forward to working on this! I’ll be working with Chopin’s Prelude no. 1, since it’s something I’m learning right now.
