casinitaly - Very enjoyable - thanks for posting - they played very well (what was that jaunty tune?), but, as will soon be pointed out by the staunch adherents of such vastly overrated and extraneous trivialities, their posture & wrist/elbow angles leave much to be desired

P.S. Was he deliberately grabbing her butt in the cross-overs or just trying to keep himself from falling?

I liked how he kept pushing the bench back so SHE'D have more room...lol He looked like he was having a great time. I take my sister-in-law to UofM for cancer treatments every 3rd Thursday and they have a small grand... this week I'm going to throw the cover back and tinkle some ivories...always seems to be a waste to just let it sit there untouched. They do have a volunteer sign-up sheet, but hey, spontaneity is always better.

That's because they're playing "Old Age" piano music

Ein-Oldy is pretty good if you are interested in this genre. Perhaps Monica knows of his work

Which genre - Old Age?
Some people like to refer to New Age music as "contemporary instrumental" music (as a more meaningful and acceptable, less-ethereal sounding alternative) - so, I guess by the same logic we could call Old Age music "non-contemporary instrumental" music, although what exactly is contemporary depends on which generation you're in (contemporary being always with us, so to speak, just like the future is never quite here) - for example today's Ein-Oldy New Age contemporary instrumental pieces are tomorrow's Old Age non-contemporary pieces (even if some cynics are already saying they're "Old Hat" ).
Food for thought...
