Ed: I told this accompanist that I'd return it to ET if she asked - kind of the go ahead and do it and apologize if they don't like it. The piano faculty is another thing. Each of them have 2 "B"s in their studio. Have you ever mixed something like Coleman 11 and ET on two pianos that are sometimes used together but not all the time? About the only time the piano faculty use their second pianos is when they are working with a student on a concerto. dave *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 4/14/00 at 12:39 PM A440A@AOL.COM wrote: >Hi Dave, >>I put a Coleman 11 on the studio piano of our most senior accompanist. >> I left her a note so she'll know why it sounds as it does.
