micing bosendorfer

I am a prosumer recordist sticking my toe in the sacred waters of real deal gear. I want to upgrade my fathers recording setup. He is a quite successful artist producing solo piano CDs. cocktailpiano.com



records his elegant playing on a bosendorfer 7 ft grand with a RODE nt1 a senny 421 through about a 350 ART preamp.

Hey all > I am going on location to record a very warm, intimate sound on a bosendorfer 7 foot grand. Playing style of the pianist is on the softer side. Standards etc.



If you could bring 2 mics and stereo mic the piano what would be your top pick. Also what stereo mic preamps do you love for this kind of recording/sound.
