In retirement from decades of computer design in Silicon valley, I am a 64 year old Astrophysicist, a second career that I do living alone from a cottage in the forest near the University of Virginia in Charlottesville.

I learned a bit of piano as a small child to the level of Minuet 3 from Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach.

I loved the classical music my father let me put on his record player. Sometimes I listen to my old favorites, the Bach double violin concerto, the Mendelson violin concerto in E, the Mozart Clarinet concerto in A and the second movement of Beethoven's 7th while reading full score, to focus my attention.

I recently bought a nice weighted key Williams Allegro2. I carry an A-440 tuning fork always, and while walking in the forest or driving to the observatory practice Solfage. I understand music theory from the Physicist's point of view, that is "On the Sensation of Tone" by Helmholtz.

It will be great to see pictures from the forest! Will you share with us sometimes?

Much more advanced piano pieces for beginners then method books. Don't you think?

Yes, listening with the score helps a lot with music appreciation. We did the same in music college and conservatory.

How is installation and tuning went? Can we recommend this piano to our customers?

Well, it is wonderful! I find music language very balanced for physics and feelings. Did you noticed how we use math and physics in our software? ;)
