Glenn Gould's 1955 recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations marks the commercial debut for the process other piano discs, both classical and jazz, are on the way. The data thus generated then furnish material for a new, automated performance on a Disklavier Pro - very much the latest step in a long evolution that began with player pianos and their perforated rolls. The short answer: software developed by North Carolina's Zenph Studios that can analyze the sounds of an existing piano recording, breaking them down into digital (numerical) representations of their physical components - tempo, dynamics, attack, duration, even pedaling.
What is a 'Zenph Re-Performance'? That may well be the first question for buyers who encounter the cover of this disc without benefit of prior discussion.
