They travel with 4 identical Boston pianos (I don't recall the specific model but they were around 7' I recall). Their routine is to set up the pianos in the morning, practice until 1PM (which really means they finish between 1:30 and 2) then the tech gets until sound check at  around 4PM to tune and make whatever mechanical adjustments/repairs might be necessary. Makes for a pretty intense afternoon!</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>will</div><div><br><div><div>On Feb 26, 2008, at 10:18 AM, Ed Carwithen wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div>I heard a segment on "Radio West" concerning the 5 siblings of the Brown family who are all concert artists, all graduated from Julliard, and who concertize together on the same program.  It got me wondering about the logistics of tuning 5 concert grands together.  Does anyone know who is their tuner?  Where do they get 5 grands; do they own their own or try to rent them in each location?  They are based in Salt Lake City, but play all over.  "Inquiring minds want to know."</div> <div> </div> <div>Ed Carwithen</div> <div>John Day, OR</div><div> <br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><hr size="1">Never miss a thing. <a href="http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=51438/*http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs"> Make Yahoo your homepage.</a> </blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
