Saturday, November 5, 8 p.m. Note By Note: The Making of Steinway L1307 (Ben Niles, US 2007, 81 min.) This documentary follows the making of a Steinway piano at this 150-year-old company, one of the last outposts of hand craftsmanship in a machine-dominated industry. It takes 450 union craftsmen nearly a year to make and assemble the 12,000 parts of this concert grand piano — Steinway L1307. Director Niles will participate in the post-screening Q&A. |
