When my daughter was trying to get into music schools (trumpet), we recorded her playing at the home of a professional accompanist. This woman was a music professor at a nearby university, and played all the usual places (Kennedy Center, etc.). She had a full size grand piano in her living room. It wasn't a Steinway, I forget, maybe a Bösendorfer. I'll never forget the sound of her playing with me sitting on the sofa. Amazing. And no stereo that I've ever heard has replicated it. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
