[Leica] IMG: Ravel Trio

Geoff:  The 4th person is the page turner. She also happens to be the
pianist's daughter, so be nice.  :-)

Page turners are indispensible when a composer "inconsiderately" writes
piano passages that require both hands across a page turn, which means you
need a third hand to turn the pages while keeping things going.

Some musician friends gave a concert Sunday, featuring chamber music of
Maurice Ravel.  Here they are playing the Ravel Piano Trio.

Difficult lighting--almost no illumination on the string players' faces. I
like the B&W better, I could do a bit more dodging before hitting the noise
floor.
