@Priya Viseskul I love the tempo on your Pavane. Some folks take it a bit too slow, but yours is graceful and moves forward. Also, lovely dynamics.

Re: A Halloween Recital!
I will be out of town that day. But, if I can locate a piano I'd like to play William Bolcom's "Ghost Rag". I'll confirm once I find a piano, LOL!
