Sharing the Accompanist Love on Twitter

This is the time of year when collaborative pianists across the planet go out of their way to bring that extra level of commitment to concerts, operas, recitals, auditions, rehearsals, recording sessions and juries. Following are some tweeted acknowledgements of pianists, anonymous or otherwise, who have gone beyond the call of duty in the last while....
