    Performance by the artist(?) TED

http://www.ted.com/talks/eric_lewis_strikes_chords_to_rock_the_jazz_world.htmlSee definitions below.
    You Make the call........MY jury is still undecided.

    IMHO there would/should be MAJOR contractual conditions prior to a performance for this type of performer, the technical demands on the servicing technician AND especially the post performance needs of the instrument
