Piano music and concert pianists

It occurred to me that there might be an interest on the website to talk about different interests that I have.  One of my great interests is piano music and various concert pianists.  I have for a while been aware that there are some terrific pianists that aren't all that well known, and this is perhaps a chance to consider what we might be missing out on.  Some pianists that I will post on here will not have much information available about them, but where there are recordings available I will try to post details of them.  Interestingly enough, a bishop did say to me once that it is quite healthy to have interests out side of church work, so perhaps I am doing something right by having this added interest!  I must stress that the comments and opinions on the artists on these pages are my own, and probably many people will not share my views...!
