Here in the tiny berg of Salem, Missouri we have = the Salem Philharmonic. =20 It's a guy named Phil who plays the harmonica. =20 And remember, Story & Clark has the (exclusive!) Harmi-Tone action. Woo. =20 Alan R. Barnard Salem, MO -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On = Behalf Of Tvak@aol.com Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 5:35 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: endorsed by the Philadelphia Orchestra???? List I've tuned many a Lester in my short career. Too many, I'd have to say. Today, there I was, sitting once again at a Lester, banging on those waterfall keys, attempting to make it sound like a piano when I looked = up, and on the underside of the lid was a decal which stated, "Endorsed by = the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra". Whaaa? This is like the US Olympic Track and Field Team endorsing PAYLESS = SHOES. =20 Or the Nobel Peace Prize Committee awarding Yassar Arafat the Nobel = Peace Prize. (Oh...wait...that actually happened...heh, heh) Anyway, how could this be true? Was anyone around back then (this piano dated to the 40s, I'd say) who could tell me how this could happen? =20 I do have a theory, though. Perhaps it's because you can refer to = either the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra OR Lester pianos by the initials: = PSO!
