Unexpected pleasure


I took the bus to Cincinnati today. My first stop was the Cincinnati Museum of Art. I was wandering through the galleries when suddenly I noticed a faint yet familiar sound. What was it? I couldn't place it. Finally --- the sound of piano tuning! I followed the sound to its source --- Allen Wright of the Cincinnati Chapter PTG, tuning a Steinway for a concert that day. We started talking and before we knew it, we were having lunch and then he drove me around town, showing me some of the main landmarks on the way to the historic Union Terminal (now a museum/IMAX theater complex). The pictures show the old Baldwin Piano factory, now an office building. Posted by Hello
