Fred and List,

  Fred, thanks for your kind offer to make this text available. Bunger's 
book is the major published source on the subject. It serves as the 
basis for our video, "Non-Traditional Piano Use," a 30 minute primer 
that explores the extended sound world of the piano in ways that are 
piano-friendly. The video has the advantage of being rigorously 
scripted AND filmed. It is not the end-all, but IS a good introduction 
to the field. (Avaliable through the CalArts Piano Shop.)

  Be sure to stay tuned for a CAUT session in Rochester on just this 
subject. Be prepared (gues that's a pun, huh?) to share your own war 
stories and discuss this area with our colleagues.

 Alan Eder

 Subject: [CAUT] Well-prepared Piano

 In a segue from David Ilvedson's post, I obtained a copy of Richard
 Bunger's book, The Well-Prepared Piano (long out of print), through
  interlibrary loan (one of the perks of the job I like a lot). I 
photo-copied
  it. I thought I'd make a couple copies of my copy (which means I can 
just
 use the automatic feed on a copier, and do one sided to two-sided) so I
  would have an extra to lend to a student or whoever. It occurs to me 
others
  might like a copy as well. Please contact me off-list if you would. 
It's
  about 50 pages, and a good accounting of the practical issues 
(materials,
  how to place, etc.) I guess $5 would cover copying and mailing 
expenses.

 Regards,
 Fred Sturm
 University of New Mexico
