Hi David, sorry about that. Just dumb luck. Actually, I was pleased that
someone else made the same connection and mentioned it. Gina already had
this all figured out, naturally, and was seeing who was paying attention.
Just imagine the possible permutations and color range of two dissimilar
pianos, tuned in different temperaments. Throw in a mix of music in
different keys and you could have a heck of a show. It would probably take
six months of R&D to decide on the optimal mix of music and temperaments
for any two (or more!) pianos for any given program, unless you had a
committee, in which case it would never be decided, but the possible end
result makes the idea kind of intriguing in a perverse sort of way. Might
make a good opening ceremony closing piece in Arlington.
