This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hey all, Some of you may remember the thread last spring, voicing for a big, = dead, hall. Still waiting for the bureaucracy to make up their minds, = but in the mean time I've been thinking a lot about the project and I'd = like to have a chat about hammer size. The hall is huge (3500 seats or = so), has lots of carpet and poses a challenge for the piano's = projection. I won't go into all the piano's issues (of which it has quite a few and = I can deal with them), but there is one area I'd like to hear your = opinions. Right now, the piano (Steinway D) has the biggest hammers on = it that I've ever seen. Is it a fact that BIG hammers will help power = and projection, especially in a problem setting like this? A friend = has recommended that I "leave them big." Some days I agree with him and = on others, I don't. Of course, I won't really know what's going to work = until I dig in, but I'd just like to hear what your experience has been. Thanks, Barbara Richmond, RPT ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
