The ideal solution would be to install a system made by Piano Disk called Quiet Time. It's more costly than just a practice mute that quiets the piano. A lever activates a bar that pivots down in front of the hammer shanks, preventing the hammers from hitting the strings, effectively totally silencing the piano. The piano sound is provided by a MIDI piano module that can be listened to through headphones. Glenn Grafton Grafton Piano & Organ Co.
