Thank you for your comment ‘toothless toe’. For the subjective part of the comment, we respect your opinions which we accept with pleasure! For the objective one instead, we must answer that you are wrong. The piano is perfectly tuned. For our solo piano productions we use a master tune of 436 Hz and a 'jazz-oriented tuning’… the thirds are slightly closed while the fifths are slightly open. Probably your perception was deceived by the resonances, beats (battimenti) and the recording techniques we use for this work.
@@ensembleCodec That almost sounds like the perfect excuse for an incompetent tune-job. I think I'll have to use that argument for the next time someone criticizes the tuning of _my_ piano.
Dear 'toothless toe', this is a trivial provocation that I honestly would not expect from a listener of this music (which I assume is cultured), rather from those who have no idea what we are talking about. Each piece we record is interpreted from all points of view, not least the technical and technological one: choice of microphones, converters, preamplifiers, recording technique, tuning, etc. It is an aesthetic attitude that is impossible to pursue with continuity in the 'normal' logic of musical productions and labels and which represents one of the foundations of this ensemble. Our choices can obviously be shared or not, but they are the result of the decisions of those who know what they do and why they do it. I invite you to equip yourself with a listening that is adequate to the music you intend to comment on and to ask yourself questions rather than launch sentences. If you want to discuss any musical, technical or technological aspect with us, we will be happy to respond to your comments, otherwise we will regretfully ignore any other provocation you may have.

@@ensembleCodec That's a-okay. I'll "regretfully ignore" any further productions from this ensemble and "relegate" myself to listening to in-tune pianos, thank you.

I love the tuning of your piano! And your playing as well!
Based
:-)
Great performance!
Thank you very much!
A great piece just as well performed. I can't even imagine how hard this piece is. Well done!
Thank you so much! Yes it's challenging from many points of view.
Okay

I am not a fan of the tuning of this piano, but amazing performance nonetheless. Good job.
Bravo!
Not a fan of the out-of-tune piano, but it is what it is. Great musicality and interpretation; technique could use a bit of a brushing up, however.

@@ensembleCodec Tunning to A=436Hz is ok, but, changing the ratios of thirds and fifths? What's the point?
