>From Bill's post: The piano used in the "What d'ya Know?" show, which was libelously and hostilely condemned in this list by the all-powerful and all-knowing Gina Carter, is normally tuned by Daniel P. Eberhardy RPT who tunes the very finest unisons I have ever heard. The show does not always eminate from Madison. It travels around the country. Whatever conditions there are elswhere are what prevail in those venues. The show is also not live every week. It is often a rerun, sometimes a non-Madison rerun. I can attest that Daniel is the most remarkable tuner I have ever encountered in my life. If I were a wealthy touring concert pianist, he would be my tuner. Therefore I can only assume the transmission was faulty. Daniel used to tune for me, for home and concert, and I miss his tunings dreadfully. He has a God-given ability to hear what is going on throughout the entire piano, that which we pluck our way about using our machines to help us hear. I'm sorry to hear about his fall and hope that he recovers quickly. Bill, Would you have the numbers for Daniel's tunings? At least the temperament octave, for I understand that he tunes to the individual piano. Best, ab Anne Beetem Harpsichords & Historic Pianos 2070 Bingham Ct. Reston, VA 20191 abeetem@wizard.net
