March Recitals and Photobooks!

Austin has had almost 50 days over 100 degrees. It is hard to do things!

But I am very pleased that my fall piano and violin program is moving forward and I have chosen a partial program for my newly booked March solo piano recitals in Switzerland! I am pleased both Kulturplatz Wetzikon and KulturKreis Arosa have invited me to perform during the week of March 11-18. I will play the Mozart a minor Sonata and the Prokofiev 7th Sonata among other works TBD. I am very excited to be able to return and perform in Switzerland.

For the first time I am ordering prints of my photos. As part of the process I made several photo books. Two of them are available for purchase. I hope you enjoy the preview links even if you do not buy!

This book has a few of my Texas photos:

This book has several of my Tokyo photos.
