comment Are there any compositions for piano that are impossible to play without a full-range keyboard?
It wouldn't hurt, just to make it a bit clearer. If you remember the exact notes that are highest and lowest in the play you refer to, that would be excellent.

The lowest C on a piano is C1 - not C0. The lowest key on a piano is A0. At the top range, the highest C is C8, but it doesn't have anything above that in that scale.

This lead me to ask: What is the actual range of a full 88 keys piano? It can't possibly range all the way down to C0 as the Octobass is able to (which is actually just below the range of human hearing)! I found this article that states that the 88 key piano ranges from A0 (27.5 Hz) to C8 (4186 Hz).

comment Teaching Bandmates to Count
I would say that the 3rd option to get another drummer, would probably send out some negative vibes that are not healthy for the spirit in the band...

comment How to extend and strengthen low end of vocal range? (I need about a whole tone extra.)
I guess the drinking (and also early in the morning before you have talked too much) gives the extra low because your vocal cord is relaxed, and easier gets down to the low frequencies. Normally, your vocal cord is a bit tighter, and it is more difficult to relax it enough to get down.
