[CAUT] Too tall!!??

[G Cousins]

Really?  
Really, really?
.5 inch?  1" ?
Really, really, really?
Who's making the request...Franz himself?
Suggest they sit taller. Good posture makes for a better performance.

They're not payin you enough bubba!
Still LOL,

PS  Tuning  Bald & S&S together, pick the better of the 2, if SAT or ETD is available take readings, match lesser to the better.
Just make certain 440 is matched and unisions are solid, which is always your norm.
There is always minimal duality in performances on both instruments. 

PSS I'd opt for the .5" plywood in black (to appease)


Still LOL....

Subject: [CAUT] Too tall!!??

Hi all.



this is a new one for me.  The
Liszt Fest has started here at UNL through Saturday.  I just got a
message from the stage manager. The pianists say the piano is too tall!
It's on a piano truck.  What would I have them do....saw off a 1/2"
of the legs? (LOL)   I'm thinking a half inch base under the lyre
and bench (although it's adjustable) and paint them black.



Also, on another note; How do you all
like to tune two pianos together?  One venue has a Baldwin D and Steinway
D together, the other venue has a Steinway D and B to be tuned together
on Friday (UGH!) I've done my usual for the 2 9'-ers but; Any tips on the
9' and 7' together would be great help.  I've never been happy with
those two pianos together, but that's my only choice.



Thanks

Paul
