Writing on piano

[Tony Hardie-Bick]

The CS80 is also a mysterious instrument. On my way in to the piano showroom on 
Saturday, I was thinking revolutionary thoughts: "These damn aristocratic 
instruments; they cost a fortune and are impossible to move". On my way out, 
only a few minutes later, I knew that there are situations where sheer 
indulgence makes sense, and there is nothing like a good piano to demonstrate this.

Ignore the superficial aspects of everything; consider why such trouble has been 
taken. Convenience is alien to art. Also to space travel.
