A Zenph Re-Performance (Zenph takes audio recordings and turns them back into live performances, precisely replicating what was originally recorded. The software based process extracts and encodes the details of how each note was played, including musical nuances such as volume, articulation and pedal actions. The encoding is played back on an acoustic grand piano fitted with sophisticated computers and hardward allowing listeners to experience the performance as if they were in the room when the original was made.) "The piano produced sounds that were indisputably human and unmistakably Gouldian. The playing could not have come from any other pianist.
