This is a very special concert. Not only is it our 2010 Gala, it is our 10th
year and the 50th concert in our series. We needed something very special to
mark this occasion.
Steinway is going to help us get a
second concert grand Steinway piano into the room. Jon Kimura Parker is going to
bring 3 of his friends. We will hear piano for 4 and 8 hands. Need we say any
more???
