Keyboard can either record-and-play-back -- with human variation but
human error -- or accept a score on a note-by-note basis, which would be
accurate but takes a bit more time to enter. Doable either way, but time
spent rehearsing the keyboard is time not spent rehearsing the voice...

Did I sneeze? 

Actually, I could use blessing; the move was more stressful than
expected, and they did manage to ding some of the furnishings,
specifically including a table that I told them I wanted them to be
careful with because it may be antique. (It's definitely great-Aunt
Lily, whether or not it's Aunt Eek.)

The real question is whether the floor joists will take seven more
people. The movers report that this delivery added up to 4420 pounds --
and this was just the tools and the books and a few
big-but-relatively-light pieces.  Apparently my guess was correct: Half
of what I own, by weight, is books.
