Hi Conrad, It was quite impressive to hear the participants wich were from 5 different countries asking questions to André in a for me well understandable English. So, I think that if the metric measure system is more a standard choice, English is the best choice for pianotechnical stuff. Afther the seminar, it was funny to hear several participants searching for the name of piano parts or piano technical related terms in their own language while they had no problem finding it in English. Of course for me and the most of the participants I think, the most impressive was to see André regulating, voicing and explaining, with an amazing rapidity, dexterity and clarity and with beautifull results. (even if he had prefered a more recent piano to work with). I've learned a lot during those two days so one more time, thank you verry much André.
