Hello to all!
Sorry to be so late, but I felt that it might be interesting to add something to this. In the city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, (which is near where I live,) the King's University College apparently has a Yamaha that Glenn Gould recorded on. I saw it once when I went for one lesson with my theory teacher there, but haven't had a chance to play it. Now it might not be quite as nice as the ones that you were discussing, but as far as I can tell it is open to public useage. Come to think of, I think I might see if I could schedule a practice time on it even though I am not a student of the institution. I am always looking for an opportunity to play on a grand piano somewhere in the city, since I am not able to afford more than an upright right now. Does anyone know anything about this piano, or about what music Glenn Gould recorded on it? Any comments? Thank-you.
Sicerely,
M Wicks
