Where to get Seymour Fink's video w/o the book !
on: November 29, 2004, 12:52:56 PM
Hi everyone,

I have the book "Mastering Piano Technique" but I would like to get the video now...

Do you know where I can get it without the book ?

Thanks.

Having now got the book I am also trying to get hold of the video. All the above links are based in North America. Does anyone know of a UK or European source for this video, so as not to have to pay a lot of money for the transatlantic shipping?

I just looked at the Amadeus  Press website, and it says the video is not available in Europe:

I guess you would have to order the video directly from them. Given the weak Dollar, that should be a bargain for you. You will then probably have to find a video player that can handle the video format.

It might be an idea to check your local library, especially if there's a "music library" anywhere near you.
They had Fink's book with video at a music library here in Stockholm earlier, but some jerk decided not to return it! I was at a waitinglist for it for over a year before i got a note saying the the book/video wouldn't be available anymore.

Thanks. I'm in the UK. I even contacted Amadeus Press subsidiary here in the UK and I was told that they are unable to supply the VHS video... something to do with distribution rights. I wonder how other people in the UK have got hold of the Video.
It seems crazy to me that in todays Global Market that Amadeus Press USA can't post a video or arrange for a European supplier when the book is available and the inside sleeve advices one to get and use the Video!

This may or may not be helpful, but keep an eye on eBay--I found my copy there.

Amazon.com doesn't have the video nor do Barnes&Noble it so it makes me believe its no longer available.
