Just superb as always, Susan.
I must admit that sometimes I think some pieces (classical in particular) simply don't translate especially well on pedal steel, but you seem to know just which ones to use. I'm also looking forward to more - well, anything more from you. Thanks for posting.

This is absolutely glorious! I too look forward to hearing the continuation. I've long loved this piece from watching and listening to video of Glenn Gould performing it. Bravo!
