I'd be interested in hearing more on the relationship between hammers =
and scale design.  It seems that the trend in rescaling is often to add =
tension to the upper regions of the piano, especially Steinways.  Is the =
older lower tension scale related to the original size and weight of the =
hammer?  Does a higher tension scale call for a larger or harder hammer =
necessarily?
