Re: “Narrower Keys: A Game Changer for Pianists”
@Linda Gould I only got to try Hannah’s 6.0 in NYC last year and decided that my hand would enjoy a 5.5 more. I dream of playing the lush Romantics without pain.

@Peter Golemme OMG - you've nailed "La Cathedrale"! I actually tried to start learning it earlier this year, had a nightmare about it and moved on to something cheerier. Les Minstrelles.

@Peter Golemme Maxwell Smart! Love it! I'm kind of bopping back and forth...did 2 P&F's last Spring and doing the Suite this autumn. Too much gorgeous stuff to keep to one type of masterwork.

@Peter Golemme You’re correct! I started learning the Suite after I watched her excellent set of classes. Have you done any of the Suites?

My favorite activity is chamber music, but I love learning solo repertoire now here at Tonebase.
I'm so excited to meet other pianists from all around the globe.
