Thanks for confirming Rachel.

You're mentioning static waves: when the wave length of a note is an exact multiple of a distance between parallel walls, the room becomes like a guitar box and they stick out like a sore thumb. There's just nothing to do about it.

For the orchestra, one could play ffff in my study and not worry about sounding more than p!

That's what really surprises me is the feeling of air - I get the impression the crescendo is going nowhere. So I thought my range was just feeble... untill I played in those halls!

The nice thing is that my pianissimo was responsive and soft too.
