'The Competition" List,=20 Watching the movie "The Competition"-- A young pianist is checking = the tuning on his practice piano, playing chromatically, all unisons = perfect. Suddenly one note is way ,I mean WAY out. He stands up,reaches = into his coat pocket and pulls out a tiny tuning lever, looking somewhat = like the size of those pinsetters w/ handles. He intuitively knows = which string is flat and proceeds to pull the string right up in perfect = unison ! The magic of the movies allowed this to happen while moved the = pin in the wrong direction !=20 Tom Driscoll =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
