Pimping up the Space

I talk about our art and rehearsal space in another post, and since the beginning of our takeover of a very beautiful historic building in Downtown Stafford Springs, I’ve periodically hosted music here over the last nine years. As this tango idea began to formulate, and I also because the host of a used, hoisted piano, I decided to dedicate more of the main floor of my shop for rehearsals and chamber events.

There isn’t enough room to dance tango here, but the more I think about it, we DO have a beautiful park with a fire pit across the street, and while it’s not quite Central Park Tango, I can see a summer Stafford Fire Pit Tango happening. It’s something to think about.

In the meantime, I put far more time and money than I intended to get Mme Free Piano repaired, wheeled, and tuned than I’d like to admit, but she is one fine looking piece of character, and now a member of our band.
