Pianophilia

Very nice posts, here Alfor. The Maykapar Variations were especially worth warming up the printer for and is great fun to play.

.... and the Tomasi is very funny !!

Thanks as always, dear Alfor !!

Nice selection of pieces today, Alfor. The Roger-Ducasse etudes sound more contemporary to my jaded old ears than the Baurenfeind, but those etudes are great fun and in a harmonic language dear to my heart. The Backer-GRØNDAHL are a lushly romantic interlude. Thanks for a brilliant Sunday morning, Alfor.
