Folks, A good friend tipped me off to some outstanding new recordings of
a Steinway Duo-Art which is the best I've ever heard. It is part of the
Earwitness radio series and you can read about it at
http://www/madrigal.com/
The piano is voiced like you wouldn't believe, and artistic phrasing
comes out like I've never heard in any other Duo-Art, live or recorded!
The Duo-Art technician is Jeffrey Morgan, and he certainly did an
outstanding job. I wholeheartedly recommend this CD to anyone
interested.
Regards,
Rob DeLand
