Where does one stay? etc. Thanks anyone! >> Clair; The formal name for this thingee is: Steinway Technical Education Program. It consists of four parts each aweek long: 1. Introduction to the Steinway Piano. 2. Tuning and tone production. 3. Dampers. 4. Concert preparation. Each session is aprox 5 days long with a small number of attendees. Cost of transportation and housing is the attendees responsibility. Food costs are the attendees responsibility except for factory lunches (usually pretty good!) The program is designed for those who actively work on S&S thingees but is open to all. The cost for attending each session is currently (I think) $600...someone correct me if I'm wrong. Well worth the effort in most cases. Get the full current info from: Steinway and Sons Technical Education Program Steinway Place Long Island City, N.Y. 11105 Jim Bryant(FL)
