Event Description

In our age of mass-production and consumption, what is the role of the musician both an instrument‘s craftsman and its player?

The most thoroughly handcrafted instruments in the world, Steinway pianos are as unique and full of personality as the world-class musicians who play them.

This film explores the relationship between musician and instrument, chronicles the manufacturing process, and illustrates what makes each Steinway unique in this age of mass production.

Unfortunately can't make it. But there is a great book by James Barron called "Piano: The Making of a Steinway Concert Grand " which gives a very in depth look at building a piano as well as the history of the Steinway family. Yeah Kid!

I can't make it due to choir rehearsal but I want to forward this to friends. It's stuff of legend!
