Mary's Musings

It just wasn't the month of May; it was a cold, crisp day in December. I had just exited the 522 (that's the bus that goes from the Park 'n' Ride near our home directly to downtown Seattle) and entered Tully's at 4th Ave & Union St. I sat on a stool near a window watching the people hurry by, and was searching for my cell phone to contact Bob (we were meeting for lunch).Someone was playing the piano, a beautiful, black baby grand. So, rather than watching pedestrians I turned to listen more carefully. The melodic, gentle piece was reminiscent of a George Winston and other Windham Hill artists. I told him so when he finished his piece.So enthralled was I with the music that I bought one of his CDs, right there on the spot. He told me he also has a Christmas CD, available soon, produced by Geoffrey Castle. I haven't had the opportunity to hear that one, but Eric Robert's latest CD is entitled Spontaneous.
