Thread Name: New (Old) Piano
Subject: RE: New (Old) Piano
I have an Ivors and Pond upright grand made in 1906. The bass on it is incredible. The high notes are a little tinny, but I think they're acceptable as long as they aren't struck too hard.
Inside it is a Dampp-chaser, a gizmo from the UK which regulates the humidity.
In 2006 I plan to have a 100th-birthday party for it.
When I feel anxious or frustrated, I play it for a while, and peace returns to my soul.
