Absolutely---bring your finest-sounding-and-feeling rebuilt Steinway,  
and, ONLY if it's really well-prepared and tweaked, a new M&H concert  
grand. Make the piano shine with obsessive rounds of tuning, voicing,  
and regulation, and you'll make a really memorable impression;  
pianotechs are the harshest critics in the world, and they'll ONLY be  
honest with you if you're pianos are something special; you'll hardly  
ever get the truth if they aren't up to snuff.

Nah.

Yes.  See above, but ONLY if it's tweaked out to concert level by a  
great technician.  If it's anything other than stunning, leave it at  
home.

That's enough.

You're welcome. This is advice I've followed and had big success with.
