Welcome to LivingPianos.com. I'm Robert Estrin. There is a place in New York City that changed my life. Steinway Hall on West 57th Street, right across from Carnegie Hall, is where I first played piano for my wife. It was a magical place, with grand pianos everywhere, a magnificent rotunda, and the spirit of more than a century of musical history filling every room. That building still stands, but something has risen above it that says a great deal about where our values are as a society.
