Sort of an “all-round pianist”. I specialized in popular music and jazz in my education, but have focused mostly on classical in later years. I do some occasional arranging and composing.

@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.
