The CD contains a beautiful compilation of music played by Pier Paolo Strona at the campus of Wessex Institute of Technology based in the New Forest.
Audiophile recording made with valve microphones and pre-amplifier, 96 kHz digital sampling rate, in a small-sized room with characteristic intimate soundfield. The pianoforte was positioned slightly on the right from the listener's point of view, and this arrangement can be appreciated when listening with a high-resolution hi-fi system. Steinway Grand Piano - model S 155.
Pier Paolo Strona is a civil engineer, researcher in the field of the numerical models of structures, photographer and author of books and calendars. He is a pianist performing both in Italy and abroad, with a repertoire ranging from the most important classical composers to ragtime, Latin American as well as asian music.
Efrem Mirolo is an aerospace engineer and an art lover. He paints, plays different instruments and takes photos. Music accompanies his life and inside him it blends with science leading to the design of loudspeakers, recording systems and to their "musical" set-up.
