[pianotech] A surprising performance

[Don Mannino]

Another recording by the same pianist, with very different acoustics.  Check
some of the tracks in 'Le Tombeau de Couperin' for some more brilliant
passages.

Recordings are so influenced by the microphones, placement, and room
acoustics.  I think this is a different piano - same brand and model,
though.

Very nice sound, not surprising about the brand at all.  These are very fine
pianos, and record extremely well.  The samples don't have a lot of
fortissimo passages, but what there is seems to show a little shrillness or
harshness in the treble.   I'm tempted to buy the album to hear more,
though.  I like that the label offers a variety of formats!
