- <p> It's not Carnegie Hall, but for pianist LAURA SPITZER the
- American West is a spiffy stage. In a big white truck she
- travels the country with her Steinway, bringing Chopin and
- Mozart to ruralites who rarely get to hear the classics.
- Spitzer, 38, gives about 125 shows a year, visiting schools,
- churches--anywhere they'll plunk down a few bucks to hear
- her. Along the way, the Salzburg-trained virtuoso has made a
- ton of friends. "I almost never stay in a hotel," she says.
- Among those awaiting her arrival: the folks of Hayfork, Calif.
