AIIIiiiiiiiiieeeeeeee! Watching piano deliveries makes me kind of queasy, especially when I see a Bosendorfer twisting in the wind. Nice piano - and nice apartment! You NY guys get it all. So I've always wondered, how much does such a move cost? Not that I'm planning a move that would require such a maneuver any time soon.Dan

A miracle. Jon, may many years of your piano give you happiness. I hope you don't have to move.Post some Ravel to celebrate. If you take special requests, 2d mov of sonatine is one of my favorites.
CJQ,Have you upgraded or are you going to use that "cheap arse" approach to record jon's brand-spanking-new Boesendorfer?
How much did the Bosendorfer cost?
Also, get him to play Ravel's La Valse as well.
Yes, there is a transcription for two hands. In fact, that is the original transcription, made by Ravel himself! He did a four hands version later on.
The original was a ballet! But I imagine he 'worked it out' at the piano, like he always did. I didn't realize it was ever published for two hands. I'll check it out... but it might be a few years before I post a recording
Did anyone else have their heart come out of their shirt from watching the video? Oh my that was scary. I'm sure it was worth it, though, Congrats on the "Rolls-Royce" of pianos!
Jon and CJ, do you recall whether the Bose was delivered with the action installed or with the action unistalled and just put in place after the rest of the piano was set in place?
