According to the Inquirer, most of the musicians were concerned about getting their own instruments protected-valuable string instruments that would be impossible to replace. Also, the sprinklers on the stage are deluge sprinklers, so it sounds like a lot of water came down. The kimmel Center just opened several months ago, so obviously all the kinks are not out yet-very expensive kinks.

When I heard this story on the radio I wondered if anybody even gave the piano a thought when this was all going on, and tried to cover it? Typical of the respect our beloved instrument gets. I have trouble visualizing several inches on water in the piano. Especially on the sound board. There is no dam on the sound board that would raise the water level that high. The damper guide rail is not continuous across the pianoa and are there not holes in the sound board where nose bolts go thru?
