Wagner’s Universe in a Pianist’s Hands

One of the most thrilling performances offered at Cremona Musica this year was the Wagner by Liszt recital given by Filippo Tenisci – Italian pianist, born 1998 and celebrated for his refined interpretations and expressive mastery of the Romantic repertoire. After his recital we got the chance talking to Tenici about his Wagner/Liszt project. Read more

Lipp two crown or Ronisch three crown?
on: July 21, 2008, 12:22:47 PM
Hello, I just joined this forum and was hoping someone out there might be able to give some advise. I am looking to buy a piano and not playing or knowing much about pianos all I know now is from reading up on pianos over a period of four weeks. I would like to buy an older second hand piano, but a very good. From what I found out so far I have favored a Lipp piano. Does anyone know or have a two crown Lipp upright piano or a three crown Ronisch? If you do I would like to know what you think . Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
I have three children and the piano will be for them to learn and love playing, and hopefully for me to enjoy listening.
Thank you.

If we're talking pianos of Lipp and Ronisch sort of age, the condition of the piano is frankly a lot more important than the badge on it. Both those firms made very good pianos in their day, and some are still thoroughly enjoyable to play, but some are frankly firewood.
Instrumentalists are all wannabe singers. Discuss.
