Well put, Ed. jeannie _____ From: caut-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Ed Sutton Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 5:18 AM To: caut at ptg.org Subject: Re: [CAUT] Piano Preferences Your question doesn't really make much sense to me. If there are answers they are highly subjective and particular to the performer and situation. If you have a deep personal understanding of some kind of music, you could speak about your personal choices, based on qualities of touch, timbre, sustain and so on, but not about "brand" recommendations, which would be largely mythological, and not professional. What kind of car is best for driving to Chicago or Toronto? What kind of pencil is best for writing five syllable words? Perhaps you could offer to speak on a different topic. Ed S. ----- Original Message ----- From: JONATHLANGH at cs.com To: caut at ptg.org Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 7:50 AM Subject: [CAUT] Piano Preferences I am scheduled to give a talk on the types and brands of pianos suited to particular kinds of music, such as jazz, List, Beethoven, accompanying the voice. Do you fellows have opinions or knowledge of what pianos might be appropriate for certain music?
