A Tale of Two Pianos...
No visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art is complete without a visit to artworks I have come to consider
friends throughout the years. It is sad to say but I probably see some pieces more than friends...one of these is
The Golden Harpsichord of Michele Todini, a baroque masterpiece said to have pushed the envelope in the moments
leading to the invention of the modern piano by Cristofori.
Recently Macedonian Industrial Designer, Apostal Tnovski, has dreamt up the Hydra Piano.
There is a myth saying Lady Gaga was the inspiration and even sadder than visiting works of art more than friends
is the potential that Lady Gaga could be the Catherine De Medici of our times. But this is not a post about pop stars, this is
a post about beautiful pianos....
