---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Saturday, June 2, 2001 All-Day Seminar in Austin, Texas Announcing the Austin Chapter PTG's annual All-Day Seminar on Saturday, June 2nd. We will meet in the Music Building on the campus of UT-Austin. The morning session will begin at 9:00 in room MRH2.608, with registration and refreshments at 8:30. This room is actually on the ground floor of the building, and is commonly referred to as Recital Studio. Ed Foote, assisted by pianists Esther Wang and Timothy Lovelace of the UT Piano Faculty, will present his temperament timeline. This is a graphic display of the development of the equal temperament, which most 21st century tuners use, and its many predecessors. These earlier temperaments were used for many decades, and lend different colors to music, depending on the width of various intervals, and the key of the music. This class is a must-hear for historical perspective, and will give food for thought regarding "historical" tuning. Should it be relegated to the history books? Or used every day? Come see for yourself! We will break for lunch (provided), and then reconvene on the 6th floor in Room 6.268, for a session on a Yamaha DC-7 grand piano with Yamaha technician Craig Fehrenbacher. Craig will demonstrate the many inventive and efficient techniques refined and used by Yamaha techs all over the world. There is no doubt you will improve your skills in this class. Be sure to ask Craig about his own design for a key spacing tool. Very cool... The cost for this entire day of classes is $50.00, lunch included. Bring your check made payable to Austin PTG. Bring cash, bring the neighbors, but be there!
