When Steven Brady wakes up from his nap, he can tell us who submitted that
to the PTJ where is appeared on p.33 of the 4/97 issue. Fellow NH Chapter
member Bill Faller brought it to our 11/94 meeting, as a photocopy for a
newspaper clipping given him by a customer. Two years later he succumbed
to my badgering and (I believe) sent it in to Steven. In that version, the
make of piano was gently fudged to "Baldway". Warren should give us his
source.

The publisher/editor of "Piano Quarterly" during the 70s and 80s, Robert
Silverman, is a customer of mine. I can check this out with him. (We could
possibly even track down Myron Kropp for a yea/neigh from the horse's
mouth.)
