So I'm reading about Liszt and the book says:

"If he had to wait five minutes for a train, the station piano would be dragged out on to the platform so that he could perform to the crowd that always surrounded him".

'the station piano'??? ohmy.gif blink.gif

Now there's an idea for the transport minister biggrin.gif


If anyone else comes across amusing or noteworthy quotes in a music book you're reading, please share! (please mention source to cover copyright issue)
