A piano that's right for lefties A musical revolution is being handed to lefties who tickle the ivories. The first piano made specifically for left-handed people has been delievered to a Winchester man, who is convinced it will become a landmark in the history of the piano. Left-handed Christopher Seed is so convinced that he has spent £28,000 and remortgaged his house to have the instrument built by the Dutch fortepiano makers, Poletti and Tuinman. Mr Seed, 34, is a concert pianist, music teacher and examiner. He believes that the whole left side of his body is much more expressive and agile than his right. World premier early 1999 The left-handed piano will be making its official debut in February next year, in a solo recital at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London. - BBC News
