One wishes to give a heads up to three fine performances lately. Rorianne Schrade played the Gounod Liszt Faust Waltz at a concert Sunday at Weill Hall that was the finest bit of piano playing I have ever heard. Couldn't stop crying.

Infinitely better than Van Cliburn . Made me think of Laurel's performance of Schulz-Evler's transcription of Blue Danube Waltz, equally magnificent. Also, Aubrey passed his third grade Stanford Math exam. And Galt gave a fantastic duet with uncle Roy at Rand & Adam's  wedding.

    BIll Newman heard her performance of the Waltz at Wigmore Hall in LOndon a month ago said ” I have never heard it played so wonderfully, except by the late Gyorgi Cziffra at his only Royal Festival Hall Performance. ” All who heard both performance agreed that this performance was even better. I have met few geniuses like Rorianne in my life, and I know many Nobelists and MAA winners. vic
