[pianotech] Steinway bashing

[David Love]

It's certainly the name they like to see on the fallboard.  Since the sound
varies from piano to piano so much I sometimes wonder what is mostly
responsible for their choice.

And a great deal of variety is possible. I heard a French pianist play two
concerts two days apart, on different Steinway D's -- he made them both
sound like French pianos. Every once in awhile someone I haven't heard
before comes along and plays a concert, and pulls out sounds and effects I
didn't know the piano had. I suppose it might be possible to do that on
another brand -- I've just not heard anyone do that on another brand.
