“The Steinway is the only piano with which an organic connection--a bridge-- from me to the music can be realized. This marvelous creation of wood and metal seems to become the living vehicle through which my ideas and the composer's ideas are communicated. The challenges given to pianists by the great masters are at times overwhelmingly difficult; I need to know that what I am thinking will be clearly transmitted, without the slightest possible hindrance. The Steinway is always my preferred piano because the Steinway makes this all possible.”
