Walking through Versailles (near Paris) late one evening last week, I saw someone standing stiffly in a well lit piano showroom. The shop was closed at the time, but on looking more carefully I was surprised to see what he was doing.
Flying between the beautiful new instruments was a radio controlled helicopter, impressively controlled. I didn't dare to take a photo ( or at least I didn't think the resulting image would have been of high enough quality anyway).
Quelle surprise!
Many pianos are actually family heirlooms which have been passed down through Wills and demesne. Rather than instruments to be played, they become the piece which sparks a memory of a grandmother playing her favourite tune as hot tea and biscuits were served. Piano Shop London
