List, The pianist giving a recital here tomorrow evening has a problem with one note ringing in the treble. He says that the G5 damper rings after release but I tracked it down to a sympathetic vibration at G6. G6 is the first string without a damper (Bosendorfer 275) and it does ring more noticeably than it's neighbors. I checked string seating on the bridge and even monkeyed with the tuning but got no noticeable change. Since this is the speaking length ringing and since that's what it's supposed to do, is there anything else I can do that may decrease this or do I tell him to get over it? Any suggestions? chris -Christopher D. Purdy R.P.T. -School of Music, Ohio University -Athens, OH 45701 -mailto:purdy@ohio.edu -(740) 593-1656 office -(740) 593-1429 fax
