Hi Murrey,and welcome to DAR, Oh, what I would give for a Bosendorfer with those extra base notes! (My recalcitrant family springs to mind. Any takers?) One of my schools is brand new and has two wonderful Yamaha grands, although I whine because they really need to be tuned more than they are. THe other school has a dreadful- though attractive- grand that I never heard of-- a Samick. I guess they bought it based on looks (like my younger son and his "hot nubile girlfriend" choices). No soul. Terrible tone and touch, imo. I have a Young Chang baby at home that needs to be tuned a LOT- I have it done every few months. Someday...... Are you a musician? Wonderful book -- The Piano Shop on the Left Bank by Thad Carhart. A good friend was taking Vioxx and loved it. After the news, she went to Celebrex and said it wasn't nearly as effective. I have to admit, it hasn't really made a great deal of difference in my hands. They still hurt when I play too long. A pharmacist told me that Aleve was the best thing. Maybe I will switch to that for a bit and see.
