I came back to the hotel recently… we may have found a workable keyboard. It is a Yamaha CP300. I don’t know whether we will buy it or not - it depends on what Björk says. I will know tomorrow.
In spite of technical difficulties the last few days have been pleasant. The day after the concert in Poland a few of us went to Gdansk and spent the entire afternoon just strolling through the city. It is the old Poland… absolutely fantastic. The houses are so beautiful! See a picture I took there below.
It was also fun to visit Copenhagen. I had a great day with Damian, wandering aimlessly around in the center area of the city. And I had a good time in Roskilde, in spite of learning just hours before the concert that the harpsichord had died.
Performing in Roskilde was difficult though - for me, that is. There was no opportunity to have a soundcheck with the instrument I played on, and I really had no idea what the people in the audience were hearing.
In spite of that I must say that I admired the audience for standing in all the rain and listening to us. Really, if any of you are reading this: Thank you!

Too bad the piano did not die sooner…….I literally sold my “like new” Roland Fantom X8 the day before you did the Chicago show. Isn’t irony a wonder ?
Good luck playing on the new instrument. You are probably so used to it but that would make me nervous.
