| Summary: | Author Knize had played piano as a child and suddenly feels that she must buy one and start again. What begins as a modest search ends when she falls in love with the sound of a rare and pricey German grand. Once shipped to her home, the magical sound is gone. So begins the author's obsessive quest to restore her piano to its rightful sound, and to understand its elusive power. She finds an international subculture of piano aficionados--concert artists, passionate amateurs, dealers, technicians, composers, and builders; she visits the German workshop where her piano was made, and even the Alpine forest where the trees are carefully selected. With each step, Knize draws ever closer to uncovering the reason her piano's sound vanished, how to get it back, and the deeper secret of how music leads us to a direct experience of the nature of reality.--From publisher description. |
