Glass soundboard

Well, I went back and listened a number of times.  It's different!  It's not 
the sound I'd shoot for in voicing.  When I listened the first time to the 
sample, "Can't Help Falling in Love," I thought it sounded like some 
electronic gizmo (and wondered at first where the piano was)--is that 
because of the sustain?  Then I headed for the 'Master Glass" samples and 
listened to all three a few times.  Although the artist gets a variety of 
tone colors out, full throttle is pretty painful.  If I was listening to 
this piano in a concert, I'd assume the piano was due for a voicing.  So, is 
it the voicing or the piano???
