Hi guys,

I don't expect this will get a lot of interest on this forum, but I'll say it anyway...

On Tuesday, October 24, I'll be giving a small lunchtime piano recital at Bard College (where I go to school) at noon. I will be playing Bach's Chaconne in D minor (arranged for solo piano by Busoni) and Liszt's Sonata in B minor. That should total about 45 minutes. (Sorry to disappoint, but I won't be playing any music from Star Wars, though I have been known to burst into improvisations on the Imperial March or the Cantina Band tunes on occasion while I'm noodling around on the piano.) The audience is invited to bring their lunch into the venue (provided, of course, they eat quietly and respectfully). If you happen to be in the Dutchess County area on that day and are free at noon, or would otherwise be having lunch somewhere near Bard, do swing by. The recital will be in Bard Hall (the performance space behind the chapel).

Just for kicks, I made a humorous Lord of the Rings-themed poster for the concert, which you might find amusing:

Hope to see some of you there,
Ming.
