Description
You know, in all the times I've posted photographs of Trent and David's piano, I don't think I've ever shown you the whole thing.
Huh.
Well, here you go.

"What's that funny noise?" she asked.
"I think it's the sound of people fainting dead away and hitting their heads on the floor," he replied.
She wrinkled her brow in puzzlement. "Why would they all faint like that?"
"Perhaps it's because you've posted an image of ALL of something."

Gorgeous shot!
OPh Tara, what a wonderful warm feeling this place has, a gorgeous shot!
well, since you posted this a while back, let me refresh you, that you wrote this comedy bit about all of us saying, "you've posted an image of ALL of something." Yes. It's the whole piano! But it's still a fairly small image! Which I say only because, after seeing this piano from every angle humanly possible (and some not possible)--ie, after seeing it with reflections that I swear were coming off of chrome, after seeing abstracts of the inside which I thought were made in Bryce, and after seeing it closeup with every kind of light a keyboard can have---I kind of thought you'd post a reeeallllly big shot of it! But-----it's ok! It's a terrific shot. And what's wonderful is that the piano---normally a huge beast that defines any room it's in, even a concert hall---is, here, just a part of the whole. That's why it's fine that the picture is small. (You know---boring warning! but don't leave the room, lol---the piano wasn't gonna be this big originally: But as it developed in the 19th C., they made so many mistakes---some pianos collapsed on themselves from weak frames containing all that string-tension---that they made them bigger & heavier to accommodate it's massive demands. By 1900, we wound up with one of the largest instruments on earth, and one of the most resonant. Is that fascinating background info or what? I ask you! Ok, boring warning is over...) Your light is actually the commanding presence here: beautiful peach & gold hues, wonderful flare on the closest lamp, wonderful light through the windows, balanced by a deep enclosed feeling in the ceiling. And the piano is the big black beast of the shot, and a beautiful foil to all that warm introspective peach-light. Beautiful work all around. "Piano," as you know, means "soft" ("piano-forte"---loud-soft, for the range of dynamics compared to previous keyboards like the harpsichord, clavichord, etc): This is a soft capture. Fine chamber capture, all around. If you were a real friend, you'd let me move into that place, bask in its shadows, and play that thing all day & night. That's what you'd do if you were a real friend. And provide me with an income to do it all year. Do I ask a lot? Do I? I think not...
Great interieur!
