PLAYLIST FOR “IT’S NATIONAL PIANO MONTH!” (9.14.24)

15 Sep

I celebrated National Piano Month, playing some of my favorite pianists, singer/pianists, and songwriters.  However, I did have to take a moment to talk to a small portion of my audience – thr pets that listen because their people listen.  Pets had a scary week with all the talk about bad people kidnapping and eating them  I wanted to reassure them with some special songs to say that we love them and they are  safe.

PLAYLIST FOR “TERMS OF ENDEARMENT” (9.16.23)
