Top Comments of this video!! :3
The Bluthner does looks as though it's trying to be a tiger . . . The Rosewood one looks like a Broadwood. Being of similar size to a Steinway Model C or Bechstein Model III this should be very interesting and having had the action changed clearly the instrument was intended to compete on that level. Abel hammers - hooray! Should be luscious. The efficacy of the 4 string system really depends on how the aliquots are tuned but there's debate in the tuning world as to how very exact unisons should be tuned and the fashion is for ultra-exact unisons. This is admired by techs but I believe makes the instrument sound dead and musicians often like a bit of "life" in the unisons. Bechsteins often had strings in the treble that want to be false, and the challenge is getting them together and in view of the famous Wigmore Bechstein with the logarithmic bridge pins, I suspect that Bechstein were aiming for some vibrato, and likewise Bluthner might not have been aiming for resonance but for vibrato and thus "life" to the sound. And these instruments are alive. Nice playing in particular on this video.
