Recorded on a freshly restored (not refurbished or rebuilt) unique Steinway D from 1887, hammers are original, have a little wear and need voicing. Dampers need regulation. Piano has a third front duplex scale and bridge pins at an angle, so strings within a unison have a different speaking length. Action is all original, soundboard is original with some careful repairs and original coating. CITES certified one piece ivory key tops in pristine condition. The case has the original and carefully restored shellac surface.
Recorded with a matched pair of Røde NT5 in NOS-configuration and a pair of tiny capsules to add some ambience.
