A Dream Comes True

Finally, my new grand piano - a Yamaha C2 - arrived on the 21 Oct 2011, a Friday morning. The movers did a professional job!





 

The piano where it is now in my studio. The tone and touch are really beautiful!






A Really Wonderful Music Dictionary & also a great App on Musical Terms

I have found the Virginia Tech Multimedia Music Dictionary really helpful.

It's a real boon with the audio files to help pronounce all the foreign terms. This is the link:

Below is an App for Musical Terms complete with pronunciation in Italian, French & German. It also includes a favorite section where one can store the terms currently understudy. Somehow, it works well only with iPhone.
