@graham@mastodon.n6.io @cordova5029@dragonscave.space @MutedTrampet@dragonscave.space @bill@mastodon.n6.io Wow. I've heard of him before but haven't come across this. What piano did he use? It's got keys higher than the top c on a regular one. Did someone tune it in a different key?

@KaraLG84@dragonscave.space @cordova5029@dragonscave.space @MutedTrampet@dragonscave.space @bill@mastodon.n6.io I'd say just a standard one, and it might sound like the keys are higher than the top C because of the recording quality (or maybe the pitch was raised somewhere in the recording transfer process, but they sound like normal pitch to me). I highly doubt either that the piano was tuned up or it had an extended range. Changing the pitch of a string by more than a few hertz destabilises it, let alone one or more semitones. (contd)
