Episode 8 - Murphy plays the piano

Piano, finally

Ever faced the frustration of coming home to find your prized electronic piano completely unresponsive? This week on Piano Finally, join me, David Reidy, as I recount my recent adventures—from a delightful trip to Queensland and smoothly handing over my Roland FP-30X to Nixon, Halley, and Ace, to the unexpected challenge of a non-functional Kawai NV-10 upon returning home. Discover the detailed troubleshooting process, the stellar customer service I received, and the planned repair that’s set to bring my piano back to life.
But that’s not all. This episode delves into the vulnerabilities of electronic instruments and the concept of single points of failure. We’ll explore why having a backup plan is vital for any pianist. Whether you’re an enthusiast of electronic or acoustic pianos, there are valuable tips and reflections in this episode to keep your practice on track, despite any setbacks. Don’t miss this candid discussion on the joys and frustrations of learning the piano later in life!
