Re: [disklavier] Goldberg Variations for Disklavier

2015-04-17 by Laurel Lapin

Good morning, everyone,I am very interested in getting the Glenn Gould "re-performance" of the Goldberg Variations--just for my own enjoyment and study. Does anyone have any leads? Thank you,Phil Mallory

 In 2014, Steinway acquired Zenph's music and software assets along with the Live Performance LX design.  They have released the re-performances (including the Glenn Gould Goldberg Variations album) as part of the music library for their recently-launched rebranding of the LX called "Spirio", which they are offering factory-installed in a few models of Steinway pianos.   It's unlikely that Steinway will officially release the Zenph albums for other systems, but I've heard that MIDI files from the Zenph era are circulating around.  It's unclear whether Steinway will try to continue Zenph's work of creating re-performances.
 
 The Live Performance Disklavier diskettes (including the Rachmaninoff Ampico roll conversions) are still available for purchase through the Mechanical Music Digest's online store:

    Good morning, everyone. 
  At one point, Wayne Stahnke converted and published the Rachmaninoff Ampico piano roll recordings as MIDI files under his brand called Live Performance. 
  The Zenph files exist for Disklavier but have never been published for Disklavier.
