Hi John,

Wow!

I must say I was very impressed with the sound.  The acoustics (from the
room) were obviously very lively in the recording on the web site (confirmed
by photos of the room), which I suspect compliments the piano design quite
well.  Of course it's difficult to separate the room acoustics from the
piano's acoustics from where I'm sitting (and using the sound system of this
laptop computer).  To my ears (again through a laptop computer), the sound
has a slightly "un-piano-like" quality in its inclusion of a rich upper
harmonic structure, characteristic more of the modern piano's recent
ancestors.  Then again, I don't know that much about historical keyboard
instruments.  Absolutely mesmerizing sound, though!  Cool!  :-)

Peace,
Sarah
