Re: Sounds of Summer: June Recital! I would like to play Scott Joplin’s “Pine Apple Rag.” I’ll plan to play live but may have to submit a video if I have to be out of town (still waiting to find out.)

Re: Summer's Crescendo: the August Concert! I'd like to play Chopin Nocturne Op. 55, No. 1. Since that is Labor Day weekend in the US, we may be out of town, in which case I'll submit a recording. I hope I can attend it live, though!

Re: Preparing for a Master Class @Tanya Yes! I love Zimerman's recordings! I also love the Horowitz No. 3 on YouTube -- it amazes me how his hands barely seem to move.
