    The conversation is 'off-line' so cannot put remarks into the conversation.

      Roy James-Pike Yes! I'm seeing the same message and no matter how often I open a new window, it pops up again. I'm sure enjoying the conversation with Christopher Shih, though!

      Monika Tusnady Me too.  he's saying exactly I how I see the risk of being a musician.  Do you think that it was on an hour earlier, 6 pm, as Hilda is in New York on the east coast but we received the message from the west coast?

      Roy James-Pike Oh, perhaps! North Americans did their time change at 2AM on Sunday morning. You're in GB, aren't you? I'm in France and we don't "spring forward" until a few weeks from now. Well, at least we have an explanation for not being able to participate in the chat.

      Monika Tusnady even more problems caused by the daylight shifts.  It's now 19:41 in the UK.  Is it 16:41 in France?

      Monika Tusnady GMT adjusts the clocks for daylight.  I think our real time is now 20:50.  Hilda is just finishing - not sure where you are in the playback.

      Roy James-Pike I'll have to be aware that the notifications that I receive from tonebase will be out of whack until we also move our clocks forward.

      Monika Tusnady I sent something to Ben by email.  We need clearer instructions.  it's probalby why Hildas' live sessions have not had an email prompt previously.  This is the first one and it wasn't accurate...

      Monika Tusnady I think I might learn some astronomy, so that I can tell time via the night sky.....it might prove handy between international clock changes 🙂

      Jenny It does need to be sorted out.  I looked at my barometer but didn't get any advice.

      Roy James-Pike 😄 (barometers can be a bit temperamental)

    I am just now able to watch and will enjoy hearing from Chris. I was chosen as one of the 72 pianists in the Amateur Cliburn that will finally take place this October. I am also a medical provider. Really can identify with Chris!

      Kathy Abrahamson Well done Kathy for being able to pursue your musical career as well as a vocational one.  Competitions are one of the ways to have a focus for practising.
