    I've been itching to get back into piano performing (I've taken a few years off), so I applied for an accompanist job for the vocal department at a local high school. Just found out I got the job! It won't interfere with my piano teaching since I'll be done by 1:30, and the timing couldn't be better to help pay for all our home improvements. Can you tell I'm excited? :-D

    Congrats, PL! I don't know if you have time for more piano students, but if so, I bet being the accompanist will bring them.

    Thanks everyone! Alright, I had to go downstairs and find something rainy to play out of the music cabinet. I can imagine you all twirling around doing an interpretive dance to this piece! I played this better when I was 12...but that was with practice, so ignore the mistakes. :D

    APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE! ! ! !
    Thank you, PL...
    Kind of strange thing happened here, as I was reading down through the posts I was thinking,
    'I wish there was some way that PL could play for us..'
    then 'viola!' there was your link to a media player file...
    Good work, I enjoyed your playing very much, listened to it more than once..

    What a talent!! It takes me all my time to bash out 'Chopsticks' on a piano. :oops: I'm off to listen to your playing all over again.
