Fast forward to 2009, with my present system solo piano is wonderful.

One of my favorite Windham Hill CDs is Windhan Hill 25 Years Of Piano - Windows. I just got up and put it on.
Dan,

While I'm typing, I'm listening to the '25 yrs of piano' on my computer. I'm recognizing the songs from Liz Story (from previous WH releases).

BTW, one of the best music experiences of my life was when I took lessons from Dr. Jan Bogdan Drath, during my college years. I think it's safe to say that I was his only student who was not a music major. His best student (not me) entered the Van Cliburn competition. Thanks for your time and guidance, Dr. Drath.
