That Faz sounds impressive. How did the young lady do in the competition? Were you impressed by the way the Faz sounded as you played?
I'm not pianist, but in addition to cello, my wife can play some piano. My wife's mother had a very nice Steinway. Not top of the line, but still very nice. It had been handed down by her father who bought it back before WW II. (He was a pharmacist, but also an accomplished musician.) It was beautifully constructed and had a great tone.
Anyway, my wife knew she would be inheriting that piano. When her mother died a few years ago, we just needed to figure out where we were going to put it and how to transport it.
In that span of about 6 months, as we tried to figure that out, their home burned to the ground. The Steinway was a charred hulk. (Her mother's nice organ was also lost.)
