---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment .... who insists the pedals aren't working right? Situation. Lady approaches me at church and tells me her last tuner did something wrong to her pedals. I got there today. It's a Acrosonic, and the last tuner put on new bass dampers. When she played, she kept her foot on the sustain pedal, and then complained that the bass notes kept ringing. For a 90 year old, she is pretty alert, and played half way decent. When I played, I used the pedal like you're supposed to, lifting my foot when the chord would change. She looked at me and said, "I have been playing for a long time, and I never lift my foot like you do. I just kept it down all the time. That is the way I have always played. But now the piano just keeps on sounding. Why is that? What is wrong with the piano?" I tried to convince her there is nothing wrong with the piano. But how do you tell a 90 year old lady she doesn't know how to pedal correctly? Willem ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
