  That's a Margaret Hood Streicher, isn't it?

  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?

    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!
