Well I have figured an empirical way to determine whether you have become old. Are the photographs from your christening in black and white? Unfortunately mine are. And I would bet yours are in colour (never mind, don't reply to this

).
It's always nice to see that you keep playing and recording. By the way, your Schumann on another post was fabulous. Of course I still play but I've been busy with jazz repertoire until fairly recently. I hope soon I'll get some time to record for PS. Anyway, I enjoy listening to your pieces and I keep visiting PS to hear others play even if I don't submit my music or comments.

You're sweet, Pantelis.

And that's good news about you hoping to get some time to record soon! Do you still have those two fabulous pianos?

The pianos are ok since you ask, but I am extremely frustrated for another reason. I had prepared some demo recordings with different microphones and placements as well as some photos to give an idea of how these things affect the final result. Alas, I relied on a USB stick and saved them there instead of the laptop's drive. The stick died and all the audio is gone! Tragic.
I promise you though I'll redo the whole project and submit it in the resources section. I am left with only the photos, here are two of them as an example.

Oh, I'm sorry about what happened! Darn technology sometimes!
But thanks for the photos - I'm glad to see both pianos! May I please come over and play them? Or better yet, may I come over and play some four-hand music with you?

Monica, I'm sure we had this discussion in the past. The invitation is open. If you happen to visit Athens, I would be more than glad to see you.

I'm really 90 years old--my memory is slipping. :wink:

And likewise if you ever come to Chicago.
