On February 6, 2010, I broke my right wrist. The immediate pain I felt and the looks of it shortly after made me wonder, perhaps for the first time in my life, ( I had taken injuries before) made me question my future ability to ever play the piano again with my right hand.
I stayed in a cast for 6 weeks, all the while learning left hand repertoire; Chopin-Godowsky Etude op 10, no 6, Bach Chaconne, Scriabin's Nocturne, Fred Hersch's, Nocturne, beautiful material that kept me inspired and hopeful and happy. I kept my performance date at Jacob's Music in Lawrenceville, NJ on March 5 to once again introduce the Special Edition of the Boston Steinway Grand. I was honored to do this for a group of 30 to 40 teachers who came from the Princeton area, and other regions of Mercer County.
For the last 3 weeks I have been in therapy and my hand is almost one hundred percent. I am preparing to go to Australia in May for a very exciting concert with the Melbourne Players. I thank all my friends for their best wishes and support throughout this ordeal.
