Bob Moffatt wrote requesting information on celestas for orchestral use. The Schiedmayer company presented an excellent class, and displayed their instruments, at the 1999 PTG convention in Kansas City, MO. Their instruments are pretty awesome to someone who has to struggle with an ancient (and abused) Mustel celesta. :) Their web site URL is: http://www.pianos.de/schiedmayer/ Percussion Source, in Dallas, TX, carries them and, perhaps, a web search would turn up other dealers on this continent.
