FAZIOLI on the radio in .... whenever you are ready for!

[Barbara Richmond]

Well, of course it was BS.  Any program like that is.  But, I was happy to 
get to hear the piano--as best as can be heard over a radio broadcast (even 
if I do have good speakers on my computer).  It did have a different sound. 
Personally, I found the "clarity" a bit on the harsh side, though that could 
be just the recording.
