[lopp3]

there's really no surprise that this is rachmaninoff's piano...don't think he'd own one that sounded any different than this.

When my student and I were invited to the Columbia medical school to see this instrument we made a pilgrimage to Manhattan posthaste.

The Steinway is kept under lock and key in a practice room. Thanks to the size of the room and open lid, the sound was powerful even when one played leggiero and/or una corda. But I suspect the piano would be obstreperous even in a concert hall. Did it, one wonders, display a kinder, gentler personality in Rachmaninoff's day?
