Low Inertia

[Fenton Murray]

If this is the piano I saw on tour a year ago in San Jose, CA, it bore no 
resemblance to the piano Horowitz played since it had been rebuilt by S&S at 
some point after his death. It was put back into a generic piano state with 
all custom key leading and such removed. Nice piano, but nothing left but 
the shell. At least that's how I remember it.
