Title: French Baroque really can be practiced at home - on the piano
Post by: David Pinnegar on May 11, 2021, 10:16:23 PM
The other day I went to tune a piano for a friend who has a lovely Steinway. Many of my friends enjoy a wide taste in music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sb6pt3OvU_o but this particular friend is passionate about French Baroque - and it works on the instruments I tune - https://youtu.be/4dCQyD57e9M

The instrument had been played every day for 18 months and particularly in lockdown and the hammers were worn flat, so flat that I re-shaped them as they should be and perhaps the recording might sound smoother as a result.

Best wishes
