Hello all,

There will be a showing of the Zenph D playing Rachmaninoff at Faust Harrison Pianos, similar to what was unveiled at Steinway Hall last month discussed here: Rachmaninoff Plays Rachmaninoff
Although we just announced this a couple days ago, and although we originally planned to have just one peformance, we had such an overwhelming response that we've now scheduled a second performance on the same evening. It would be terrific if some Pianoworld members would be part of this. I have copied a portion of the invite below; please RSVP if you would like to come - spaces are filling up VERY quickly.

You Are Cordially Invited

Faust Harrison Pianos, in association with Zenph Studios, proudly presents "Rachmaninoff Plays Rachmaninoff." This landmark performance is unlike anything you have ever witnessed, unless you are fortunate enough to have heard Rachmaninoff perform in person.

On Thursday, October 15th, come be a part of history in the making, as one of the world's most technologically advanced pianos performs the original performance of Rachmaninoff's greatest works. This performance will not be of an interpretation of Rachmaninoff's composition by a different performer, but his actual recorded performance reproduced on a magnificent 1909 Steinway Concert D restored by Faust Harrison Pianos.

The program will include pieces Rachmaninoff performed of his own music as well as his interpretation of music by other composers.
When: 2 showings - Thursday October 15th at 7PM and 9PM
Where: Faust Harrison Pianos, 205 West 58 St. (between 7th Avenue
& Broadway, look for the Faust Harrison Pianos black awning)
Cost: FREE
Availability: 50 seats, reserved on a first come first serve basis. Standing areas available

There are parking garages nearby, and limited street parking should be available.

Jeff,

I would truly like to be there - unfortunately I must attend something down this way that evening. I hope it will be there for a while longer though because I would like to see it.

This might work out well anyway. If you aren't so busy when I get there I might get better eyetime with this beauty and at the same time catch up with you, Jeff. Its been too long!

Can't make it myself. How about making arrangements to put this on Youtube? It could give Zenph's work broader exposure.

Will there be a hologram of Rachmaninov projected during the performance?
