Just another note...You hear the song played at a tempo where you can sing it (Wally Varner in this case) or you can speed it up just a hair for an instrumental.
Link to videoI associate the song with Jake Hess. Jake has a small solo in this version...

Does it have Noona’s signature? How about Ferrante and Teicher?

One of the nicest pianos I ever played was a new SD10 - sitting right next to a 9 ft Bechstein. No comparison - loved the SD10. About a year ago, I could have had an SD10 for $1,500 - decent shape. It was a case where the owner had passed - and they needed it out ASAP. If it had been at a different point in my life, I'd have grabbed it in a nanosecond.

Thank you! For some reason there has been this story floating around that Bechstein designed the SD10. I have heard both sides, but the reality is that there is nothing that I have ever heard on either piano (and remember that I did sell Bechstein for a time) that was similar in any way. I just don’t see, hear, or feel it.
By the way, that brings up another point. I hear A LOT of people talk about how they LOVE the European Sound. So “full and warm” with depth!
7 out of 10 European pianos that I have played were screamingly bright. They sounded like glass.

But I have always been a fan of Baldwin. Love the pianos.
And if it wasn’t for Baldwin, I probably would never have met Karla.

Are they piano salespeople?
