    Not seeing a lot of photographic evidence.... Of course, I had a piano party yesterday as well. Here is Martha Argerich taking a turn at the piano.

      Too bad you didn't have any of my fresh figs with that fine charcuterie.

      Education is extremely important.

                      Excellent! It's wonderful to see these pictures, not only for us digital people to meet in person, but also it's nice to see a little time capsule of musical culture and talent in this world of 3-second video clips and instant digital itch scratching.

                          Pretty freakin' nice!

                            @jon-nyc said in Piano Party 7/27. Klaus is coming to visit:

                            Mayla set a new standard for piano party hosts.

                            Indeed she has! I very much enjoyed the fresh ceviche and chaufa, and pretty much everything I have tried from the spread. @jon-nyc has posted her pictures before, and if you think she's pretty in the pictures, what 'til you see her in person -- stunningly gorgeous.

                            Certificate-jonNyc-PianoParty-2025-07.png

                            I did not take any picture or make any recording with my own phone, so I will leave the posting of pictures and videos to others.

                            It was certainly great seeing everyone there again. (Yes, you should kick yourself for not being there.)
                            Great food? Yes.
                            Great music? At our piano parties, always!
                            Even greater people.

                            It's good to see Jon remains in good health, Klaus now looking more jock than nerd (compared to when I last saw him pre-Covid), and they being quite content with their respective new partners. Yeah, pretty much all the regulars' hair has gotten thinner and/or whiter, but we have also seen something we haven't seen at piano parties for a long time -- children! KathyK brought not only her son but also her grandchildren. And as far as I can remember, this is the first time we have three generations in one piano party, and they all play the piano.

                            ***and don't tell KathyK this part ...***

                            Until he opens his mouth and you realize he’s still a nerd.

                              Well, I said only that he looks more jock than nerd, I didn't say he sounds more jock than nerd. 😄

                                  You're right. I WANTED to go, but I was booked for Quebec City the week before (for Lakme at a local opera house,) so that was an issue, and then my DAUGHTER (who I would have brought, and at Juilliard no less) was a STINKER from hell about having something to play. (FYI I suck at the piano personally.)

                                  BUT if I knew, if I KNEW that KathyK would be there I would have make it work out. I would have begged, and cringed and cowed and whimpered just to kiss her hand. And then my life would be complete. Now, now, I am to condemned to walk the earth: as a shadow.

                                    And wondering if I’m the only looking at KathyK’s glasses and thinking: what kind of sorcery is this?? 🤔

                                      The other side has the arm intact. Not sure if that’s fashion or they just broke.

                                        Oh no. The glitch in the matrix. I'm sorry that the whole party and it's participants are AI-generated. Including this post.
