List, For those of you also on pianotech, I'm sorry about the duplication but thought a few of you might be interested. I don't have much feedback yet, but FYI, for a faculty piano recital last night, I used Lehman's temperament on a harpsichord (Bach), Kirnberger on a 1700's reproduction Fortepiano (Haydn), Young on an 1850(ish) Bösendorfer Fortepiano and ET on a S & S 'D' (Berg). Whew! Quite a tuning session. :-) Both Fortepianos were sharp enough that I had to go over them twice. All in all, about 3-½ hrs. plus a preliminary tuning in the AM on the Bösendorfer prior to a rehearsal. I've also used the Lehman for a concert our harpsichord guy played at a major hall downtown (all Bach). He also recently did an all Mozart faculty recital a couple of weeks ago using the Kirnberger on the Maene Fortepiano. Now if I could just some established on regular pianos. Maybe I should just do what Ed did. Move a few to something like a Young and don't say anything about it. Of course, in my position, it would be simple to retune if anyone complained. :-) Avery Todd, RPT University of Houston
