Demonstrating the Reproducing Piano
By C. Jim Cook

The most impressive demonstration I ever saw was on a visit to Bob
Hunt's place in Maine.  He had an Ampico B player grand going with a
Debussy roll.  I don't remember what the piece was, but I do remember
being impressed with the delicacy and expression range even though it
was all played at low volume levels.

Sometimes, the music needs to be neither flashy nor loud to impress.
