Name that pianist

[Megan]

Anyway, do Steinway make upright pianos?

Yes, if you were as old as Pope Benedict XV1, you might own one.




Steinway K-52.

That is not a cartoon, Megan !! You're on the right track though, in terms of "hierarchy" (though two tiers down?).

Is he English?:

OK, a really easy one (but I can't find the relevant cartoon so I'll describe the tableau instead) : imagine in your mind's eye a pianist at the piano (he prefers Steinways), dressed in "religious garb".

Could it be His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI ?
He's not a famous pianist but likes Beethoven and Mozart.

[Megan]

Well, I was half right, no?

Yes, well that means you were half wrong then, and I'm not telling you which half. I'm sure you would have got there in the end.

Peter (?) Wallfisch

YES! Well done. Peter Wallfisch. Too easy I see.


Your turn now.

No idea, Megan! Give us a clue, is the pianist living or dead? And is that a fish, a frog or a salamander, or ...?
As a quick "joke" answer, I'll say it's our forum administrator Peter. Why? Well, the logic goes as follows : fish / fisherman / fisher of men / Jesus's disciple Peter, the fisher of men.

Yes, Philip it is a fish, and no, not a biblical reference.

To give a clue, this famous late pianist's son is one of the most celebrated cellists.

See if we can guess the name of the pianist whose name is similar to the cartoon.
