Resolved Question: Buy and old upright piano advice?
I found this pretty upright piano, don't know what brand, in one of my local stores The outside finish is still in good condition it has a few scratches and everything but nothing really that serious....well there is one thing that is serious it's the beat up keys. They keys are pretty worn and beat put, they're chipped have pieces missing and discolored. It needs a tunning because it sounds kinda weird. I was thinking of doing this do you guys think it's actually worth doing I was thinking of just getting it tuned up for about 100-150$ and then buying a new set of plastic key tops from ebay or something for about 60$, plus the piano itself costs 230$ so it will end up being around 400$ the piano is in pretty good shape overall the only problems would be the tunning and the keys. Do you guys think it will actually be worth it spending that much on restoring the piano? moreResolved Question: What is the definition of "risoluto" on top of a measure? What does it indicate?
My piano lessons are over until the end of summer and I didn't get to ask my teacher what "risoluto" means. Does it mean resolution? What am I supposed to do? It's above the second last measure, so it makes sense if it means "resolution. In the grand staff on the same measure, it says forte. Can anyone please help me? Thanks. Image: http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/1153/... The book I am using is RCM Grade 3; piece title "Arabesque" op. 100, no.2 by Johann Friedrich Burgmuller. Incase you are wondering, I added the "sf" because it is in my book while it is not in that image which I took off the internet because I was unable to take a picture of the actual sheet music from my book. Any help would be great. Thanks again. moreResolved Question: How does my essay sound, and what corrections need to be made?
The Steinway Grand Piano is the most prestigious piano on today’s market. They cost from the upwards of $52,000 for the US built version of the piano and twice that amount for the Hamburg built version. These pianos are owned by the extremely wealthy and/or fantastic pianists. Steinway Grand’s are used in the top music conservatories and universities in the world. No other piano’s quality can surpass that of a Steinway. The process of making a Steinway has not changed much since it was founded in 1853 by Henry E. Steinway. The making of a Steinway is a one year process. The first step of making a Steinway is selecting a matured maple tree from Steinways personal “Piano case maple forest.” Once the maple has been selected, it is soaked and steamed for two weeks. During this time, the wood expands and becomes slightly pliable. After the steaming process, the wood is taken out and formed around a steel casing of a piano. It takes twelve to fourteen full grown men to bend the maple around the form and use bolts and straps to secure it to the form. After three days of air drying in the factory. It is brought outside (summer only) and allowed to expand and shrink around the mold for one week. After the wood has taken the shape of the mold, it is released and put in a room with two hundred other grand piano cases. Each case stays in the temperature controlled room for two months. If you take the case out too late or too early the piano will not have Steinway quality and is rejected. This happens only about once every three years. During the two months of curing, the action is made. The action is the part of the piano that the keys are attached to. When you press a key, the action moves a hammer, which in turn, strikes a string. The making of an action is a delicate process. The action contains 8,800 moving pieces (100 pieces per key). Very few people are qualified to make a Steinway action. Also, during the time the action is being made, and the case is being cured, the bridge, soundboard, and veneers (only for pianos with wood grain finish) are being made. The process of bridge making is well kept secret. Only 3 men in the US make bridges for Steinway. These men are special craftsmen; they are able to create a bridge that will fit perfectly inside the piano without measurements. The bridge is attached to the soundboard. The sound board is the “heart of a Steinway piano.” The soundboard is made of specially selected spruce. The spruce it cut into strips that are 6 inches wide and they are beveled and put together. Once the soundboard has been put together, it gets ribs and is shaped; then the bridges are attached. Once all of the piano pieces are made and painted they are put together. To assemble a Steinway, you first attach legs to the case. Then you lower and attach the soundboard to the case. Then you slide the action in, lower in an iron casting and bolt it into the case. Once an inspection has been made and passes ALL of the tests, the piano is strung and tuned. When the piano is tuned properly, the stings exert a force of 10,000 lbs on the piano. The iron casing keeps the piano from collapsing. After the assembly process has been completed, the piano is shipped out to various dealers, schools, recital halls, and Steinways one and only “Steinway Hall” in New York City. The Steinway piano is the best piano money can buy. Steinway’s goal is to “Build the best piano possible, [and] sell it at the lowest price consistent with quality.” For over a century and a half, the world’s most accomplished pianists have preferred to express the musical talents on a Steinway & Sons piano. Though many people believe that owning a Steinway & Sons piano is exclusive to the virtuosi, it is in-fact “a world open to all who share a love of music, fine craftsmanship and enduring quality.” Please let me know what you think and what corrections need to be made. thank you! moreResolved Question: How does my essay sound, and what corrections need to be made?

I seem to be happy and able to laugh on the outside, but sometimes, when I'm not even thinking about anything sad, I suddenly want to cry. People's first impression of me is that I am a dark, unemotional person. I have had many problems in the past ever since early childhood and I still have a hard time going through life. These probems aren't as serious as physical abuse from parents or such, but they are very emotional. My mom often says things such as wishing that she had drowned me as a baby or that I am incompetent at everything. My dad doesn't really seem to care. As a small kid, my mom pushed me academically. From the time when I was 3, I was able to count to 100. I started multiplication and division in kindergarten. By the time I was in 4th grade, I could play Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, and other classical composer pieces on the piano. On top of that, my parents had marriage problems that were traumatizing to get caught in the middle of.I did not a have a life to socialize and have fun with other kids. Now, I am just a regular teen in high school that struggles to maintain my 4.0 gpa. My parents never give me the chance to go out with my friends, and when they do, they try to make me feel guilty about it afterwards. Because of this, I have become painfully shy and introverted. Even now, I basically have no life. When able to attend events such as dances or parties on a rare occasion, I feel so withdrawn and then I have sudden impulses to cry with absolutely no reason my conscience can think of. When I was 2 years old, my dad got into a car accident that made him disabled. I do not remember how things were, but I do remember that my mom was very depressed all throughout my early childhood. Whenever she got angry with me, I would be very confused and have no idea why I was being yelled at. I just want to be able to enjoy life and look forward to the future, please. moreWelcome to Top 100 Piano Pieces News
