Elise Walsh says: The song is Maria from west side story

Don Condit says: “There’s a place for us” from West Side Story!

Barbara Bernstein says: Bravo Carlo! Thank you so much. Barbara & Elliot Bernstein

Ruth Potter says: Bruce, I hadn’t browsed down far enough to see this place where we could give our thoughts on the Piano Puzzler. It really was beautiful. I love the Schubert piece that you used (An Die Musik), as I used to sing it. Then the Bernstein “Somewhere” (There’s a Place for us) is the music written in the style of Schubert.
