---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Margaret & List, I was informed yesterday that our Maene Fortepiano has arrived at the airport. I guess I'd better order the Fortepiano version of your book soon. :-) It'll probably be delivered within a day or so, after the customs stuff & etc. Would anyone happen to know if a book of any kind comes with this particular brand?
