Well if it's not been news here on list yet , I guess it will be now. The
short answer is yes, these pianos will be on display , I think in a separate
area in or from the usual exhibit hall. This will be called a "Rebuilders
Gallery" & in Rochester these pianos can be played , heard & admired.
Rick Florence the institute director has invited 8 Rebuilders to bring a
piano & teach a one class period extolling the virtue of their particular
designs etc. The pianos will be in seen & heard in class & also arrangements
are being made to hear these pianos in some sort of performance venue.
So far the 8 are Ron Nossaman, Terry Farrell, David Hughes Shawn Hoar,
Ron Overs, Dale Erwin, Chris Robinson & the last one escapes me right now.
My own feeling is that a display of this kind supports, encourages &
promotes member creativity & enthusiasm & also affirms the merits of on going
edjucation.
So bring your doubting Thomas on over & let her decide for herself.
I am honored to be included with such esteemed company.

Will it be possible for the "general public" to see
these pianos? I have a friend in Rochester, a
physicist with a concert pianist wife, who snorted
" How can you possibly improve a Steinway !?!"
