A feature-length independent documentary directed by Ben Niles, “Note By Note” follows the creation of a Steinway concert grand #L1037 – from forest floor to concert hall.
The film explores the relationship between musician and instrument, chronicles the manufacturing process, and investigates what makes each Steinway unique, according to information at imdb.com. “Note By Note” is the first documentary to portray the patience, craft and personality built into each Steinway.
