When playing a grand piano,what is the difference in an open lid vs closed lid?

An open lid will allow more sound to escape and reverberate, and is therefore usually louder.\n\nIt all depends on what you are accompanying.  You will probably notice that solo grand pianists almost always have the lid open.

I suspect that blub frequency (I'm referring to a poonk sound) is determined more by air cavity size than characteristics of water, and is affected by the container's maximum dimension. This means the final blub probably wouldn't be consistently different in tall and short (but otherwise identical) bottles since the long dimension of the air cavity has shrunk to a minimum.\nThe reason I believe it's not water vibrations is that water in typical sized containers seems to vibrate in a higher frequency range (example, playing a water-filled stemware glass). This may not be completely relevant, but in some air/liquid situations you perceive more of a boink than a blub or a poonk. That's an upward sweep in frequency which I'd bet indicates a shrinking air cavity.\nAs far as measuring the frequency, I'd suggest first identifying a pitch. You probably can train your ear to find a pitch if you can't already. Then find a musical instrument and try to match the pitch. Assume A natural above middle C is 440 Hz (or you won't be far off if you assume middle C is 256 Hz), and go from there. An octave higher is twice the frequency, and a half-tone is a ratio of 2^(1/12) or about 1.06.

i dont know but its fun to play on the piano. i have the music & i play it everyday.

Here's a couple sites that may help you.\nhttp://www.gibson.com/Products/Pianos/Baldwin%20Pianos/\nhttp://www.scripophily.net/dhbalpiancom.html\nhttp://libwww.syr.edu/digital/guides/b/BaldwinPianoCompanyRecords-Des.htm\nYou could also try asking about it at a piano repair shop.\nGood luck, hope you find what you're looking for.

Foot pushes down lever which lifts a rod which pushes up lid at hindge side.\n\nThe mechanical advantage of the foot strength v weight of lid makes this effortless

If the water is in a closed container, there can be no loss due to evaporation or any other process.  A closed container will keep the contents in it regardless of what state the contents is in.  That is, the water can be frozen, melted, or evaporated as many times as you want and the mass will always remain the same.

Because heat causes molecules to separate (expand). The metal lid has a lower liquifying temperature than the glass, and voila! It expands more than the glass, breaking the seal and opening more easily.

Molecules do not expand.\nIncreasing the temperature of a material increases the speed at which its molecules move - the molecules take up more room and the material expands a little.\nHeat energy is conducted better in metals than glass so the temperature of the metal lid will increase more quickly than that of the glass. The metal lid will expand more quickly than the glass, consequently the lid can be removed more easily.

Hammond's, used B3's, C3's, M3's.........(just because I like the sound I said that :) Depends on what you are going to do with it.....learn?.......already playing, so for live?.........Do you want one with a good piano sound and weighted keys?.....bunch of sounds?........Do you want to go into the Midi world (scary stuff....and plastic) and record? Think about what you want....then look for the one that suites all your needs. Id also suggest full size keys tho. I hope this is some help.Play on!

there are different formulas for volume.

Depends on the length of the interval, just like with notes. \n\nhttp://www.dolmetsch.com/musictheory2.htm

Ah, depending on the brand of piano, the sounding boards and keys are made of different types of wood. Black keys are often made with Ebony. Cheaper models are painted or covered with plastic. Some use ivory (black AND white) and some use mother of pearl for the white keys. Felt is used to stop each string's vibration. The tuning screws and other metal workings are usually brass. The strings are steel and copper (three strings per key), depending on the pitch. I hope that helps.

The container is sealed because the air inside is PRESSURIZED (not vacuum sealed as another proposes).Tennis balls are pressurized on the inside to give them the right amount of bounce.  Over time, air leaks out of the rubber surface, causing the ball to lose pressure and become flat.  So, the container is also pressurized to keep the balls from becoming flat over time before you even use them!

Depending on how old the IBM is .... usually two "slide" catches to the left and the right of the lid

Think about what chord you are playing the most.  That would usually be the "tonic chord" and the lowest note of that chord is the name of the key. If you know the name of that chord, that is the name of the key as well.  If you don't know the name, but can hear the same note played on a guitar and piano, then match that note to a key to figure out what the name of the note is.  The white key before a group of two black keys is called C. The white keys are in order c,d,e,f,g,a,b, and then you should be at c again.  The balck notes are the same letters plus sharp if the note is higher than the white key ex. c sharp  or flat if the balck note is lower than the white key- d flat.  b and c and e and f are next to each other without a black note betwen them.  This pattern of balck and white notes on the piano keyboard repeats many times- each repeat is called an octave.

Attempt to not overblow and don't change your amboture (sp?) when it comes to not losing your intonation. Lip up if you are flat, and relax your jaw and lip down if you are sharp.  Grab a tuner and set it to 440hz and do "longtones."  Go from your low D (F Concert) to your middle D, 12 counts each note and start Piano (soft) as you can and cressiendo 6 counts go to Forte and the next 6 counts decressiendo  back to Piano-do this with a tuner.  For breathing techniques, without your horn, tsss sound in the longtones pattern  (6 counts cressiendo/6 counts decressiend).  Do this blowing in the palm of your hands and make sure you are blowing warm air.  As you get better at it, increase the number of counts.  Good Luck.

don't think so. i do that too. like, i play the piano, and halfway play my guitar, but i was at the music store buying a music book with my 30% off coupon and the guy was letting me try and play some of the songs in it, and i got to play on this really nice, expensive grand piano, opposed to my litte not-very-expensive yamaha i have at home...
