Re: Buzzing sound around the ears

I play in a a room in the house with a 6ft grand piano and my usual clarion sets off many of it's strings. The bizarre thing is I listened to a recording of the Finzi concerto a few days ago and I hadn't realised how 'dark' it was with the string orchestra.( I have played it lots of times with the piano reduction). So I set about trying to make a darker, more focussed sound and directed more down the mouthpiece and used flatter vowel sounds. The piano strings stopped vibrating but the sound seemed to be exciting the metal in the cast iron fireplace instead!
