aftertouch

[Anne Beetem]

So Del,

    It sounds like players still want a Viennese action.  Minimal dip and
aftertouch, rapidity, more control to win more flexibility!     See, they
really do need Stephen's instruments, especially for home and chamber music.

    I'm delighted that you're giving them this.  I know I am continually
frustrated at how terribly difficult it is to play, e.g. Schubert,
properly on the typical modern grand.  The key dip and inertia are too
great to create the effects necessary.

   Thanks for the specs, too, I'm setting up an instrument this next week
and will try them.
