Next on the schedule was classical \/ cabaret pianist Allison Lovejoy, performing a series of classical works, including one of my favorite: Ravel&#8217;s Jeux D&#8217;eau.  I&#8217;d love to get that music back in my fingers.  Practice&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Next was Socorro de Castro, performing a group of jazz tunes, including standards and originals, and a country tune!  She was followed by Debbie Poryes in a delicate set of standards.<\/p>\n<p>Allison came back to the stage to perform some original cabaret music, including an ode to her grandmother about pills&#8230; hilarious!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I closed the night with 4 of my original tunes.  I&#8217;ve never really performed many of my own tunes, so this was a moment of a bit of nervousness for me (a true rarity), but it went well.  More than a few people told me that the songs were beautiful, and even tear inducing.  Wow!  I can&#8217;t wait to perform them with my trio : ><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Friday, I participated in Ladies Night at Piedmont Piano.
