First and foremost is it's Beethoven! Then it's such a well sounding piano--solid unisons, even tone, obviously regulated and tuned as good as it can be. The tuning allows the music to come through; it doesn't interfere with the music. Then she's such a great performer. Her knowledge and love of Beethoven shine. I play your CD often because of these reasons. I wish I could say it's because of the temperament, but I think the reasons above will compensate. :-) < Eugina & List, Just recently got a copy of the CD from Amazon.com . While I know Ed sells them, Amazon offers an easy option to get hold of the CD, especially to us 'foreigners'. Anyone vaguely interested in the topic should get hold of this CD. While I agree with Eugina that a lot of factors contribute to the success of the project, for me the outstanding feature of the CD is the clear and different key color of the various pieces. I assume that this was the aim of the CD, and IMO it succeeds in demonstrating the key colors that a Well Temperament offers. Check it out for yourself and make up your own mind if you haven't done so already. Regards, John Woodrow Sydney, Australia
