No problem understanding your English. However, if you want to work on = it, there's a great forum called Tandem [tandem@slf.ruhr-uni-bochum.de] = where you can be assigned an English-speaking pen pal who is learning = Portugese. He'll correct your English, and you help him with his = Portugese. (I'm currently doing this with people in Spain and Latin = America - a great way to learn).

My English may be poor in order to explain why I think that the = middle strings are the=20 better in order to you do a temperament. When you use a rubber to mute the right side string, you may use = this mute rubber in two=20 directions: 1 =96 Put the rubber from right to left and the rubber will be = behind the right side string or 2 =96 put the rubber from left to right and the rubber will be over = the right side string. (to the left side string, change the directions) On the two cases the rubber forces the side string from or to the = plate and the string will be=20 in a different plane from the middle string. YOU NEVER FORCE THE = MIDDLE=20 STRING. So the middle string will be always in the same plane and this is a = very good condition! My old German teacher said: always forces the side strings to the = plate in order to maintain=20 the plane of the middle string free from the plane of the side = strings. ( In some cases, if you=20 forces the side string from the plate, the plane of this string is = in front of the plane of the=20 middle string and the hammer can=92t to strike the string well!). In all cases when you pull the mute rubber from the place where it = was muting the string,=20 the string come to this original plane and....... MAY BE OUT OF = TUNNING.=20 Because of this, in some pianos the PAP=92S mute is very useful = because it don/t forces the=20 side string to or from the plate. This is all. I would like to read this in a very good English!=20 =20 ROGERIO CUNHA - Rio de Janeiro IC MEMBER OF THE PTG =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
