Weel done! I was thinking about Taffanel, but althouhg my pianist is really
good, I don't want to put her under too much pressure as she is accompanining me
with the Hummel for cello, and she is performing Schumann her self!

Have an excellent Christmas and best wishes for the New Year from the South
Coast, (near Chichester, Portsmouth)!

Karen.

Got my act together and did some proper research - must be things out
there, I thought. And there is!!

Paul Taffanel (1844-1908) and his Andante Pastorale and Scherzettino
or anything by him except his later stuff if the dates really are
important!

Charles-Marie Widor Flute Suite, Op. 34 (revisiting this just now and
though I am not sure of the dates for this suite, I think it was
early.)

Reinecke - Sonata Undine (fab - would love to play this again
sometime!)

Doppler - I think his dates are okay too.

The Faure of course is a great thing to play. I moved house this year
and had to find a competent pianist to at least keep on playing. Not
an easy remit in the Highlands and wilds of Scotland! But I found an
excellent guy - retired so he has plenty time to indulge me and he's
not a bad sight reader either - revisiting all sorts of things before
we decide what to do seriously for a wee recital! He loves the
Poulenc so we include a movement everytime we play together just for
fun! (Did I say fun?????)

Ah well - the Christmas madness is over for a year so I can
concentrate on 'real' music for a while! Merry Christmas.

Cheeri
Carole
