Prof. Morkoski is an instructor of Piano at CUNY-Lehman College in the Bronx, New York and has come all the way across the country to showcase her marvelous piano playing. One idea that really captured my attention in the program notes is the program and the choice of pieces; some are great piano repertoire and while one of them is an orchestrated piece. Starting off the concert…

was playing keyboard on April 21st. The Keith Oxman Quartet plays at Nocturne every Friday night between March 10th and April 28th. On last Friday evening, the concert began at 7 pm and ended at almost 9 pm.

In the song, the lyrics, “I remember when I lost my mind/There was something so pleasant about that place” can be related to Hamlet looking back on different things that he has done to where…
