[CAUT] becoming an all Steinway School

[Jim Busby]

Dave,

It's chosen about 50/50 with the Hamburg in the same hall. Its character is more suited for a chamber instrument rather than a large concert hall (IMHO, warmer) but they tell me it was brought to Carnegie Hall for some big event and performed well there.

always choose Steinways, and it's nice to have variety for students to
compare/contrast.

Jim:

I'm jealous of your selection there - particularly the Shigeru!  How has
that one done?  The one that was here at the Dallas PTG convention blew
me away.
