Is it just me, or do pianos seem like living things rather than pieces of furniture? They don't deserve to die. They should go to the piano retirement home in Cuba or somewhere Frowner

They'd just end up coming back as makeshift boats and rafts. The island is mostly deforested now. They'd appreciate the lumber. Yes

And it's very, very cool.

As for the grand, perhaps the windows ARE south facing - in Australia!

Piano design has changed little in the past two centuries, but now Philippe Gendre has a new take on the concert grand in his design called M. Liminal, made by Fazioli pianos. Its asymmetrical shape looks positively aerodynamic, and it's a blend of the old and the new with its wood on top and stainless steel base.

I think it's a rather beautiful object, but wouldn't the proximity of the steel change the sound a little?
