Re: Hatches, Matches & Despatches
Congratulations! Presumably he'll specialise in playing Kapustin.

Maybe in the future Timtin, but at the moment he will be practising the Music for Toy Piano by John Cage I would think.Timtin wrote:Congratulations! Presumably he'll specialise in playing Kapustin.
Congrats to the other Tim on the new star of the future being entrusted to him.

Re: Hatches, Matches & Despatches
Thank you both - we're over the moon! He's certainly got long fingers, which is a good start...
