Full couple of days, but whew! I’ve once again avoided ever missing two #dailypiano in a row.

This sweet one, #2 of Bortkiewicz’s Op. 39 Kindheit (“Childhood”), is called “Maman” (“Mama”). The suite is based on the Tolstoy novel. We’ll hear more of it.

For today’s #dailypiano #pianominiature, another quick little one (compared to the usual, which is really saying something). Bortkiewicz Aus Andersens Märchen Op. 30 #2: Die Glocke (“The Bell”).

Beautiful summer weather. In a few hours, slightly bigger than usual Friday family get-together, at our place. Using my minutes between shuttling kid 2 and kid 1, here’s Grieg’s Lyric Piece Op. 71 #2 Sommeraften (“Summer’s eve”), dappled sunbeams and all. https://youtu.be/5gJ-hVhz4J8

Home from driving around a sick kid for an hour’s nap, with a few minutes before everyone’s quiet time, here’s an almost-but-not-quite-solo reading of Grieg’s Lyric Piece Op. 43 #2 Ensom vandrer (“Solitary traveler”).

Brought my folks the “complete” Daily Piano Miniatures on 3 audio CDs. They’ve been having a listening party.

Today’s Grieg Lyric Piece is Op. 12 #2, Vals (“Waltz”), and a #dailypiano #pianominiature first: to my knowledge, I’ve never heard it before.

We’ll return to more Mompou miniatures.

Today we shift gears to York Bowen, whose complex and colorful harmonies (with more than a little jazz flavor) I’ve never been brave enough to try putting hands to. From his Op. 102 Preludes, here’s #2 in C minor.
