This review caught my eye in the Sunday NY Times: "The way Andras Schiff played Bach at Carnegie Hall on Monday night was not so much a matter of interpretation as one of reinvention. He was, in a sense, beginning with an 18th-century set of architectural drawings and applying 21st-century building materials to them. The transaction is more complex than prickly harpsichord or supersensitive clavichord versus Mr. Schiff's souped-up Hamburg Steinway (itself reinvented by the Italian technician Angelo Fabbrini). ...audiences of 2,000 or more require the kind of brilliant sound and carrying power of which this pianist (and his piano) are capable." http://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/17/arts/music/17MUSI.html Do any of you know about this technician or the piano, or what modifications were made? --Cy Shuster-- Rochester, MN
