I think I can assure you this departure from what we are accustomed to
verses what's possible is a big jump forward & not backwards. If the sonic
pleasure you get from a supremely prepared standard Stwy etc piano pleases you
,then fasten your seat belt when you sit down to the redesigned keyboards. All
the struggle we go thru to eeeck out sustain and power in the average piano is
waaaaay easier when the board is really a working & vibrant musical
breathing dragon. Oh & did I mention dynamic range?
My hope is to make more of the re-designed "custom restored" pianos
available to the average Tech/pianist to experience & play so you can determine
for your self if it's just hot gas or the real deal.
This is one of the purposes of the Artist Alliance Of David Andersens
Atelier In L.A. David , myself dreamed of having a place open to pianist/
techs to have a hands on expereince. Don't complain be happy. Come over &
play.

In any case, I hope new ideas continue to be explored. I don't know if the
piano can be improved without a departure from what makes a piano a piano, and
that's why I take the position I do. If all that is being desired is to make
pianos consistently sound as good as the best Steinways/M&H/etc., how can I
complain? But if we're talking about a big shift that might change the piano
as we know it, how can I not complain? I love the piano!
