Unless the thing is out of tune. > -- ddf How bout if its broad cast live? Specifically, I heard a really good sounding piano on Prairie Home Companion today (1-31-98). Good pianos appear in surprising places. I doubt if it is a concert grand, but prob a 7 footer. I'd give a dollar to find out what it is. For three dollars I could phone the theater and find out. I suppose they will play it again next week if they are in the Twin Cities. I have always thought it would be interesting to have a thread on Great Pianos I Have Heard. If they are on recordings, that means all of us can hear what one of us thinks is a superb sounding piano. Even over FM radios I have heard some great pianos. Like the one in the Prokofiev Concerto # 3 played by ?? with the Israel Symphony, Zeubin Mehta.
