@Gail Starr Thank you, Gail! Yes, there is a bit of mystery to this piece. Calm and reserved, yet deep emotions underneath. I was so glad to see you in the audience for the concert yesterday :D

@Anthony Miyake Thank you, Anthony! Yes, I’m pretty sure the theme is more well known then the piece somehow. At least I too was familiar with it before hearing the whole piece.

Re: What's the most surprising thing you have learned about the piano?
I remember being surprised when first learning about knee levers on early pianos, and that there were more ways to control the piano-sound with different stops then there are on modern pianos!
