 ..and the piano seems to be one of the hardest instruments to faithfully reproduce through recording, if not the hardest.  Any thoughts as to why that is?

 What they ultimately proved is that no matter how good the recording and the playback systems,
there is always some extra lows and some extra highs and some extra nuance
that just plain won't record or playback. I think the same holds true for
even the high-end sampled electronic pianos today. They do sound pretty darn
good, but they don't really sound real. And I don't think that they will be
able to reproduce a real enough sound from an electronic device anytime soon
enough for it to effect many of us.
