Another friend from Bluthner told me some days ago that they are = making a totally inverted grandpiano. So the highest treblenote will be on the left side of the keyboard and = the last bassnote on the right side.!!!! How weird is that? They are only doing one ( yet ) specially designed for an american = guy. The story is that he was walking around at the Frankfurk Musikmesse = and asked all the manufacturers if the could build him this piano. Everyone said now except Bluthner. The instrument is not finished yet. Will be in some months, said my = friend. Imagine how music will sound on that piano or how difficult it would = be to tune it.
