Our first clips come from a concert that took place at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Lakewood, Colorado on February 8, 2009. The concert inaugurated both the church's new piano, a gift from Norman Chichester in memory of his wife Susan, and their new concert series, run by Music Director Allison Olsson, designed to nurture the community with music.

The Well-Balanced Pianist Director Teresa Dybvig (basso) and Piano Instructor Susan Nowicki (primo) opened the concert with Johannes Brahms' Hungarian Dance no. 8 in a minor.

For encore we played Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Italian Polka." (Yes, between the composer and the name, the piece covers three countries!)

Director Teresa Dybvig played Debussy's "Clair de lune."

Piano Instructor Susan Nowicki gave a charming and informative spoken introduction to her Haydn Sonata.

And here is Susan playing the first movement of Haydn Sonata in C Major, Hob. XVI:50.

Finally, closing night fun at The Well-Balanced Pianist Colorado 2009 with Albert Lavignac's masterpiece, "Galop-Marche," for eight hands at one piano. From Primo to Basso, performers are Piano Instructor Susan Nowicki, Gulchin Tarabus, John Wickelgren, and Director and Piano Instructor Teresa Dybvig.
