dearie said the dream was a sign that i will be walking out most of the piano shops feeling unsatisfied and not buy anything. hahaha. i laughed and replied, "probably for now".as i was practising my pieces i thought of sauter pianos again. although i have not played on one, but as i have tried grotrian upright, a fellow german-crafted piano, it is a fairly good benchmark to imagine how a sauter will sound.
i searched the number to raffles piano and called up to find out the opening hours. now i know why we didn't manage to find it during our last walkabout to victoria concert hall. they have shifted and they are still negotiating for a place. the owner was really friendly and offered to call me back when they settle in.
can't help but feel a little disappointed although i know it will be more of a trial session more than a purposeful purchase review. i cannot afford a sauter for now, that i am very sure. but like a steinway, my hands itch to touch, feel and listen to pianos which fall in a different league.
how about trying out steinways? i read that the sauter's distributor(raffles piano) is very friendly, but i've not heard likewise about steinway's distributor (robert piano). therefore, i don't think i will walk into robert piano for now. on contrary, i am looking forward to walk into raffles piano soon! in a month's time. it's worth the wait.
the dream might be true in its sense. i am thinking i will probably walk out of raffles piano feeling unsatisfied, not because the pianos are not good, but because my pockets are not full enough to afford one! =D
11.15 am, time to head out to fill my pockets.
