I must agree with Kelly again. This topic reminds me of my days at Berklee
in a large room filled with non-pianists like my self doing their
mandatories under headphones attached to Fender-Rhodes electric pianos.
Imagine a room filled with the sound of 30 sets of tynes twanging.

My thanks again to Kelly, who is well known in vital music areas of New York
City, who made it possible for me to find a Clark Fobes San Francisco
mouthpiece in the city that doesn't sleep and didn't care if I slept.
