It's great that some schools, as well as many performers, are recognizing the special qualities of pre-modern pianos. Does your soprano enjoy the lower pitch? Laurence Schubert Lieder? We have a soprano with a beautiful but not big voice. Then I play on our 1816 reproduction Nannette Streicher. Now I understand the many colors of Schubert! Her unforced and sometimes soft voice, and the many colors and clarity possible by multiple pedals is enchanting!
