Lovely indeed - is the 'voice' on the keyboard 'piano with resonance' or is it a more exotic choice? Sounds a bit like my favourite 'Fantasy' voice

That's it, SashaQ. On my Yamaha it's 005. I don't like the plain 'concert piano' setting. It lacks the resonance of the regular piano, of which there is one in the same room, so why bother?

Yes, I was thinking plain piano wouldn’t be your first choice of voice given that you have an actual piano to play!

It has more warmth than many settings, but it doesn't sound like something played on an electronic keyboard.
But it wasn't just the setting. I like the tune, of course, but it was also played respectfully and with feeling. You can't get better than that. <ok.

Thanks, Paul. That means something.
I was trying to explain to Elektra the other day that instrumental music sounds better to me if it flows like a monologue, as if the instrument were speaking.
