[pianotech] SWELL was What is bloom

[Dempsey Jr., Paul E]

Ron,

I know and hear the phenomenon you're referring to.

And, as you stated, it is a too rare encounter.

Bloom and swell are good words but I call it sing.

Terrific voicing is a must but, I believe that this sing, swell, bloom (whatever) of the tone comes from a hard working, efficient and sensitive soundboard.

As you said, it is something different, rare and (I agree) special.
