When we bend a string at the agraff to level it, (as part of the voicing process), how long does that bend last?
I ask this question because when we do a raise pitch, there has been some discussion that one of the reasons a piano is not stable very long is because the bends on the string around the pressure points like the bridge and agraff, straighten out.
So when we bend a string to level it, does it eventually straighten out and we have to level it again later? Or do the bends stay?
