If you are listening to live solo piano music you should be listening in a large living room or moderate recital hall, not a concert hall. The sounds will be different. Actually, the musical performance itself will probably be different if the musician is a great artist.I know from personal experience it is possible to capture the tonal quality of a live piano extremely accurately, and that with microphones only a few inches from the edge of the piano, i.e. not quite under the upright lid. (AKG C-451 cardiods)
I spent quite a few hours finding the location where the tonal capture exactly matched the live sound of the playback matched the live sound of the piano at my usual listening position. It was not bright, nor was it rolled off. Other recordings (off some of the same music by the same artist) were made at live concerts and were not so "in the room present" bright.
