Claire Elise

Just finished the first of two two-week music camp sessions on Friday, and this year's interactions with talented young students have inspired a few new creations. I'm still working on showcasing something else, but here's something unexpected. A couple of very sweet young pianists asked after a piano class one day if I would arrange Debussy's Clair de lune and Beethoven's Für Elise for them to play as a duet. It was only when I got home and started toying with the idea that I put two and two together: these two students are named Claire and Elise.
