Target Audience
The intended target audience of this website encompasses classical piano music lovers, record collectors, record producers, piano students, concert pianists, musicians in general, music broadcasters, music critics, and members of academia seeking factual information.

Definitions
You are reading the home page of a purely informative, descriptive and educational website, first launched in Sydney, Australia, on 03 February 2005, as a pilot project. On that date   - three days before Maestro Arrau's 102 anniversary -   the site was uploaded with the name of ArrauHome, and was tested over the February-April-2005 period as a website using both the www.arrauhome.com and the www.arrauhome.org domains.

Artistic comparisons and technical statements of judgement regarding Maestro Arrau's interpretation of works and approach to music are deliberately avoided with a view to thus encourage, and facilitate the enjoyment of, uninfluenced direct personal exploration and discovery.

This website is a private, voluntary, resource-sharing, non-profit-making project, developed for the sole love of classical piano music as a pure expression of the human spirit.

Sources
Most information and illustrations found organized into this project come from the public domain, printed and photographic matter accompanying the artist's output items, relevant bibliographic essays of wide circulation, other printed media, as well as goodwill contributors and internet inhabitants in general.

Site Management
The component sections of ArrauHouse are expected to be updated and enhanced on an ongoing basis, no sooner new relevant material and the necessary resources become available. Latest updates are indicated at the bottom of each individual section.

Bequest or Auction
The entire large private collections of physical items, identified in this project's "Complete Discography" [please see] and "A Bibliography" [please see], forming two out of the various sections of the website, will be either auctioned and awarded to the highest bidder or bequeathed to a proven, meritorious, public, cultural or educational organization which shall sufficiently demonstrate that it possesses the means, and shows the intent and commitment, to take charge of, preserve and further both the collections and the website.
A decision on this matter will be publicized in due course through the ArrauHouse website at any time before 2015.
