Magnus Hjorth

Nothing is more fun and relaxing on a sunny Saturday afternoon than just sitting on my patio ( + ice tea) browsing the internet for some musicians who are new to me.

Magnus Hjorth, a young pianist from Denmark. The great discovery of today!

Big B-day!!!!

June 9th was my very big B-day !!!  I can't believe I'm...

I got a new profession this year which has been one of my hobbies and interests for a long time. I like to be a Therapist. Also, my youngest is graduating high school, which will change my life a lot. I think I have made a good start on the next half century of my life.

 I am so grateful to have a family and friends who always encourage me. Thank you very much!!

Misha Piatigorsky (piano)

Yesterday I happened to hear in my car Clapton's "Layla" arranged for jazz trio. Wow! Super cool! Who is this? I pulled over and started searching (crazy me??). I discovered this pianist on a sunny day in May by chance. Really my kind of pianist!! A percussive pianist with a sharp attack and sunny-day feeling!

Tulips

Tulips, tulips, tulips...
