There are two approaches to recording solo piano music...
The "classical" approach is to record what a person sitting in row 5 of the recital hall would hear, at right angles to the keyboard--a blended sound, but ntl with some low to hi spatial differentation.
The "pop" or "modern" approach is to suspend the mics left and right over the soundboard and behind the hammers, in parallel with the keyboard.
That can be more immediate, but it also can deliver the artificial sound of a piano 11 feet wide, and bring on listener fatigue.
The piano recording in the past few years that has most impressed me for its naturalness is Alan Feinberg's "Basically Bull," which has the added benefits of unique programming and truly inspired playing.
Well worth buying.
Miss it at your peril.
