Bach's Herd of Harpsichord's

I studied classical piano from age 6-13.  The piano teacher lived in my building in the Bronx.  She was a witch.  I was forced to practice two hours a day, was sent downstairs to our basement apartment when I was ill prepared for my lesson, and the day my mother liberated me from these lessons was a national personal holiday!  I caught many a beatings for not wanting to perform for family and visitors.  However I emerged from this experience with a love of Bach and baroque music.  And for that I am grateful. Bach was my favorite composer and I loved playing his Inventions.

And today we went up to the First Presbyterian Church where we listened to a wonderful Bach program performed  by LA FOLLIA AUSTIN BAROQUE with three harpsichords and a baroque ensemble.  It was just beautiful.  Abe joined me and enjoyed much of it.  After a while he's had enough Bach. And to prevent gridlock in the parking lot we left a bit before the program ended.  This is what you call compromise in a marriage.   The concert was lovely and we ran into Ria and Amandine, her lovely mother here from Belgium.
It is a pleasure to run into someone who is so happy to see you! 

And now home to Abe's beloved football.  A compromise in a marriage.  It works.
