    On my recent birthday. 79 I went to a piano store.
    It is a Kawai GX1. Had a GX2 years ago that was too much for the place. I like this one and my technique has improved.
    Have a row of Corning acoustic panels against the wall behind the piano, covered with a black fleece blanket.

        Nice. At this age there's little wisdom in doing much other than exactly what you want to do.

              Much wisdom in this remark. I bought a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano a few months ago to replace the Clavinova that I'd had for many years, but which had died and for which repair parts could not be obtained.

              Now, if I could only persuade my fingers to regain some of the agility they lost over time.😣 😣

              Money seems to buy the most happiness when you give it away.

                @Big_Al I am trying to recapture some of that agility. I feel I am being laughed at for trying.
