Another introductory post

Hello, everyone! I stumbled across this comm at random and was surprised to find it's so new. Looking forward to interesting discussions, but meanwhile... My three favourite composers are JS Bach, Stravinsky & Steve Reich, and I also listen to a lot of contemporary classical, 20th century eg Bartok & a handful of earlier composers. I love contemporary opera, choral music, string quartets, cello, &c&c.

I've very recently started to play the piano again after a 30-year hiatus, but am finding it hard work on my own. I was also hoping to take up choral singing again, but find my voice -- always problematically placed between soprano & alto -- has shrunk to nearly nonexistence.

I have pretty small hands, and particularly short little fingers, so was quite pleased.
