Hello,
I am looking for an information about physical characteristics of the hands of famous pianists.
As an example czech pianist and a teacher Vilém Kurz (1872-1945) had broad fleshy palms, shorter fingers, thicker at the root and at the end pointed. Bulging finger pads.

Many thanks for any information about any worldknown pianist.
Renata
