Pearl River

[Dave Smith]

Dave, at the Chicago session on Pearl River, Dave Campbell said that they
have a relationship with Yamaha which is a JV (joint venture) through the
Chinese Government.  Yamaha/Pearl River lead the JV.  They have the common
ground of building pianos in (and sometimes for) a tropical climate.

That's what my notes say, anyway.  Probably other know a lot more about
this.
