Hi  folks

Thought I'd share with you a tidbit of a newly recorded concert  in 
Bergen by the Philharmonic here in town. The whole concert will be  
broadcast on NRK in March I believe... I'll post a link at the time for  
anyone interested. This is an 11 year old Hamburg with original  
hammers.... I'd like to have them replaced but I think all in all I got  
the voicing to come out reasonably well... just a tad on the bright side  
for my part but then part of this is the piano, and the player... and  
the need to project over the orchestra.  The recording accents the  piano 
and in the concert itself it was not quite as dominant as it is in  the 
recording... tho to be sure it projected quite well.

This is  just a small cut from the ending of the 2nd movement... where 
the  instrument really showed some sparkle.  Got a review in the local  
paper... a first for me tho it was kind of indirect... still the  
reviewer referred directly to the sound of the instrument itself and his  
comments were very flattering... if short and sweet.

Here it is in  anycase... hope you enjoy this short cut and get to listen 
to the whole  concert when it comes  through.
