Don't recall the name of the title or author, but the author is German; thankfully the book is in English. PianoTek Supply had copies at the conventions. <DIV>Ring a bell? Can you provide the details I forgot to take note of? Is a review in the PTJournal imminent? </DIV> <DIV>As I recall, it was expensive, but not ludicrously so  (considering the US $ has shrunk 40% against the euro in the past 7 years).</DIV> <DIV>Thanks,</DIV> <DIV>Patrick Draine</DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
