Re: How sharp to tune in the altissimo?

Ed,
my understanding is that even a 9 foot Steinway needs some humouring, just a lot less than the average piano.
The finest piano tuners work entirely by ear and the end result they seek is is to make the piano SOUND perfectly in tune with itself even if theoretically it's not (accepting equal temperament can really never be "perfect").
