For Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3. All the ladies converged on me at the little old BBQ this afternoon, volunteered to sit with my husband so I could go out. They know I play this piece, and wanted me to go hear it live. I shall have to go look in my closet to see what I have to wear-or go shopping. :)

Oh, one of my favorite pieces! :-4

:wah: That's about it, with his fingers dancing on the keys.

It was a Danish conductor, who was alot of fun to watch. He did jump around alot on the the little podium.

Made me think what I look like from behind, when I direct the choir on one of those peppy songs, I kind of get into it.....:wah:

It's safer to be the musician.............

Anything they want-it's music. :)

Ssh, don't tell Nomad, but I play the accordion too........nothing like it when the windows are open on a nice day, and the neighbors are outside BBQ-ing...............

(used to do that when I was a kid)

Oh that is soo cool. My son plays the tuba with the windows open and it is such a pleasure to hear it. My 18 yr old daughter loves when he plays in his room as it bounces off the house next door and she can hear it perfectly downstairs in her room. It is sorta romantic in a way.:-4
