Hi Everyone, Welcome to my brand spanking new web site, designed by my friend and colleague John Albert Thomas. John is a talented pianist/composer in his own right and can write code. How impressive is that?

There are lots [...]
On Friday, my 18th recording quietly launched into the world. And that was kind of perfect, because the recording itself is quiet, subtle, and filled with nuance. A few months ago, I dared to allow the recording engineer to hit the record button while I dreamed up piano improvisations with the intention of quieting my own worries, and those of anyone else who might later listen to my musings. [...]
Happy Autumn! Here is my newsletter for Oct/Nov.
Our lives: they are all about TIME, aren't they? What we do with it, what we make of it, how we view it. I have been obsessed with the concept of time ever since learning how to read a clock. Tick, tick, tick. Time seems like a constant, but it doesn't feel that way. Ever. It seems to move too quickly, or too slowly. It flies when we are having [...]

There is too much time and we are bored. There is not enough time and we can't finish. Then there is the complicated part of time—the kind we have to [...]
Here it is March 17th and it is snowing. Hard. Be that as it may, Spring is unstoppable and she will be here...eventually...with all her gifts: flowers, warm breezes, sunshine, longer days, baby animals, birds nesting. Here is a sample of my song, "I Remember Spring" from my CD, A New Kind of Love. I hope it puts a "spring" in your step. Here's a photo of me [...]
Read Robin's February news!
I found this photo recently. I am holding my mother's hand in our Irvington, NJ apartment. I am waving goodbye. I wonder where we were going. I love how our clothes match. I don't remember this particular day, but I do remember being about this age and getting lost in the Two Guys Department store. It was terrifying. I must have let go of my mother's hand. It seems like [...]
