Unique Lucite and Stainless Steel BABY GRAND PIANO

This a custom built Lucite and stainless steel Wurlitzer Baby Grand piano. The cast iron (plate) has been refinished in silver rather than traditional gold to match the stainless steel of the cabinet. The lid is Lucite so you can see the interior even when the lid is down; there is also a mirrored keyboard cover.

You don't often see grand pianos from this angle...
It is a Steinway, 1868

The amazing Ithaca "Duplex" double frame piano
The complete duplex system of the Ithaca Piano. The strings resonate in sympathy with the strings struck by the hammers in the front.

Piano Moths
Who ever would have imagined that these creatures could be beneficial to a piano...

Michelle takes about three weeks, working eight hours a day to design a single moth, which can be broken down into different pieces and carried from place to place for reassembly.

»School of Velocity«, 1995, by Rodney Graham,

One hell of a long Opera

"»School of Velocity«, 1995, by Rodney Graham, combines the piano exercise of the same name with Galileo’s equation of the acceleration of falling objects. The result is the piano piece progressively slowing down, with longer and longer pauses between notes. Based on a few bars of music cobbled together out of the score of Wagner’s Parsifal by Engelburt Humperdinck, Wagner’s assistant, to compensate for a problem the opera company was experiencing in synching up its music and scenery. Graham adds a progression of repetitions, whose durations are determined by the prime numbers between 3 and 47, for each of the fourteen instrumental sections that would be playing Humperdinck’s interpolation. The result is an opera that doesn’t end until the year 38,969, 364,735."

Schimmel Pegasus Grand Piano - - Only 14 were made ten years ago...
Professor Luigi Colani reimagined the traditional 88 keys and gave the classic grand piano a futuristic organic shape with some virtuoso upgrades. The Pegasus features a ergonomic curved keyboard ( i. e. the keys exhibit a slight curvature ) that encompasses 7 1/4 octaves, a electrically operated hydraulic lid that allows you to control the specific amount of projection desired, a fallboard "soft close" system, the original Schimmel Triplex Scale "CAPE" precision soundboard tri-dimensionally curved and formed with a "high performance" back assembly with tension collector, a Sostenuto pedal (middle pedal), a fully-adjustable integrated black leather upholstered stool extendible in width, height, and distance to the keyboard, and a hard-wearing professional lacquer finish resulting in a grand piano of breathtaking elegance.
