piano 300

yes, try googling Piano 300 and you'll get a tour of the pianos at the smithsonian institute!

click on the blue 'listening booths' and then which listening booth you want.

try the listening booth #1 to hear christofori's piano as it may have sounded.  the hammered dulcimer is really great sounding, too.

listening booth #2 has rachmaninov playing his own concerto #2.  it's really something.  also, many other composers playing their own works.  *how did rach look so unromantic and then play this way?
