---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Today was the faculty recital on the D I've been discussing, and the results were very favorable. This morning I spent an hour and half tuning and spot voicing the piano, and at 1 PM met with the professor, where he pointed out a few minor shift voicing problems. He did say he wished there was a little more power in the 5th octave, but I pointed out that it might make the piano too brittle. And besides, he didn't want any changes at this point. After the recital he looked very pleased, and thanked me for the work on the piano. This, for me, was a big relief. I had been uptight about this for several weeks. (Ask my wife. She's been a saint for putting up with me). Not only was the professor happy, guess who also showed up? The critic who slammed my piano three weeks ago. Actually, he is a good friend of mine, and I've worked on his piano. At intermission we talked, and he said he thought the piano sounded great. So, the bottom line, at least for now, is that the professor is happy, the critic is happy, and that makes me happy. (I haven't heard from the other piano professor, but I'll worry about that some other time).
