Hi all,

Can anyone please tell me what the piece playing in the background is from the main page of this site?

DAMNIT!!!! The piece was played by a friend of mine not so long ago... She played it very well...

It could be a Faure Piece I think... I know it is in E Major. Sorry I can't tell you more than that.

Sorry, I have no idea, but I wish I did, it's really nice.
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

A world, in short, totally unlike our own.

yep. Scriabin Prelude in B-flat, Op. 21 No. 11. The piece that plays on her biography page is by Faure:  Improvisation from Pieces Breves. Op. 84 No. 5. It sounds good. I think she's a great colorist, real talented (and classy-sexy might I add!) Gee, wish Christine Yoshikawa were my teacher.  Does anyone know which pieces she's recording for her new album?

I'm not familiar at all with that set by Faure. I really don't know much of his solo piano music.  I should start studying my rep before classes this fall! (lol) .
Yah, she's DEFINITELY a hottie!
