Tian accompanied the Delta United Church choir on January 20, 2013.  Not only is she a very accomplished pianist, but she has wonderful 'people skills', too!  She was able to accompany a soloist and our choir in a 'surprise' tribute to our Music Director, and did a fabulous job!  Thanks so much, Tian!
