Hi Terry,

Not only a serious classical pianist--but the concert was broadcast by CBC
radio in Canada. I guess that covers it being a "pianist of note". It was
about three years ago now--so I do not remember the details. I heard it
will driving in my car.

I do know our local orchetra uses a digital keyboard instead of a
Celeste--not because they don't have a working Celeste. I'm at a loss to
explain it.
