• Info: Lanterne rouge for recital 37? Possibly, but unlikely given that there are several hours left! :-) I love Beethoven's Sonatina in G and targeted the first movement for this recital some time ago, though I just start working seriously on it a couple of months ago. It's still not where I want it -- not quite up to tempo and a little rushed at the end -- but then again it is an accurate representation of where I am. This was also my first attempt at recording from our new Yamaha C1, which was a learning experience in its own right. Lunch? Worked right through lunch to make sure my recording got submitted for this recital. I'll worry about lunch later. When I went to upload it, the internet was down, something that rarely happens with our Century Link fiber connection. There was a brief moment of panic, but fortunately a modem reset did the trick and here I am! Tom
