[Dixielandjazz] dave brubeck

To Musicians and jazzfans & DJML
Correction!  Error in my previous post!

Dave Hanson is trombonist par excellence in Atlanta.  He corrects me on my
geography--kindly and gently.  And I thank him for his graciousness.
( Dean Hampton is the KC Jazz activist--)  I apologize  to both for the
lapse of memory.

Hanson gives me points for correct name of the piano with extra
keys--Bosendorfer.

Thanks all.  Previous comments appended should you wish to clarify further.
Otherwise stop here!

playing on a Meiserdorf which has an additional octave in the

>Vickers said: "Meiserdorf" is a new name to me( I can find Meisdorf,
Germany but no piano by that name), but Bosendorfer piano has extra keys.
