No, but I've played baseball with rolled up socks and an old tennis raquet.  Couch pillows became bases.  The carpet was even green :)
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
