<div>Below is a link to an 18:40 minute 192K file of Scott Davie
playing Rachminoff's<i> Variations on a Theme of Corelli</i> on
my 225
cm grand piano no. 3.</div>

<div>This is a classical recording, and the microphones were
placed to
get more of the room, relative to the closer mic placement
typical of
a jazz recording. We also were particular about achieving a
recorded
sound which didn't have an overly boosted bass. There are so
many
piano recordings out there which sound nothing like the source
instrument.</div>

The world is a thing of utter inordinate complexity and richness
and strangeness that is absolutely awesome. I mean the idea that
such complexity can arise not only out of such simplicity, but
probably absolutely out of nothing, is the most fabulous
extraordinary idea. And once you get some kind of inkling of how
that might have happened, it's just wonderful. And . . . the
opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a
universe is time well spent as far as I am concerned.
