“Mr. B used to close up the pianos in the theater or the studios before leaving. He would always clean up the pianos, take away the cigarettes or the chewing gum, whatever. He treated pianos like somebody would treat a cat or dog or the plants at home. In class, the poor piano usually receives more blows and more accidents than it’s suppose to. He treated the piano almost like a person.”
