Personally, I am happy to be associated with Jenn.

IOW you don't feel threatened by her.

I don't feel "threatened" by anyone.
In my alphabet, P is for piano not paranoia.

She has an admirable knowledge of music,

She's OK, but I have my own private musical knowledge-base complete with a
PhD in music.

He/she doesn't seem to have taught you anything so far:-)

There is a huge difference between having an aquaintance
who knows about music and knowing about it yourself:-)

My wife speaks fluent Russian, that doesn't help me one
iota when I pick up the insert card of a Russian made CD.

What does your PhD thinks of your screeching sopranos
with intonation +/- 1/4 tone? Or what does he/she thinks
about the horrendous distortion you manage to add to
their already dire performance of "Domine"

Jenn
And a is a very gifted performer.

She's good but not that good.

The C17th English poet Alexander Pope and his "
Epistle to Dr Arbuthnot" sums up your attitude to
the talents of others rather nicely:

"Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer
And, without sneering, teach the rest to sneer"

I wager a penny to a pound that in your Baptist church
volunteer recording activities, you will never meet, let
alone get to record, a player of Jenn's level of talent.


She makes pretty good recordings to.

As an artist, typically with someone else choosing the mics and twisting
the knobs.

It is my understanding that she did these recordings alone
at home.

Charming, erudite, and gifted. I can see why you don't like her:-)
