Hey Jim, Since over 95% of all concerts are performed on Steinways, oh maybe it's a little less, but certainly the great majority and the "great majority" (new scientific data term) of performing artists prefer Steinways, it only makes sense to practice on them as much as possible. Does it help to broaden one's horizons by working and concertizing on different instruments? Sure, but then there's reality, and that would be Steinways. Any arguments?? this should be fun.

Many reserve Steinways for those rooms, but isn't a diversity of brands better? We currently have 6 of these rooms and have the following breakdown; 2 Steinway Ms 1 Yamaha C3 1 M&H A 1 Kawai GS-40 1 Baldwin L All these kept as optimal as possible. Any arguments for going all S&S? I'd especially like to hear from those of you who majored in piano performance. Thanks.
