Oh I thought I did read the article very well: I think it is just so amazing that people have this kind of vision. Are there other people in the world who, like David Rubenstein, have made their own pianos. If anyone knows of any other large pianos please post your comments and any links to stories, photos etc. Now can anyone add further info to this? The 6m piano is a reality as I contacted Schimmel and they have confirmed it. There is a small picture and article here: Now hold your breath for this one, it is quite unbelieveable! Schimmel are currently building a 6m Grand Piano (That's about 19ft 6in!!).

Do check out the website, there is an amzing series of photographs there detailing its construction and an informative interview with David Rubenstein: I wonder if there are some photos about anyone could post?Īlso my searchings for the biggest of Grand Pianos in the world have turned up some amazing results.įirst there is the Rubenstein Piano at 3.71m and has only recently been completed. For once I can actually see this enormous piano being played, a real bonus. Thats a great golden reply! Thanks a lot for that. Away from the piano, they have Henry Wood and soloists recording Vaughan Williams' Serenade to Music, and so on, and so on. There's Eric Coates, Eileen Joyce, Charlie Kunz, more Billy Mayerl, eight pianists playing Rustle of Spring at an Islington cinema, followed by the 2nd Hungarian Rhapsody sounding more like a military march, Raie da Costa, and Winifred Christie on the Moor double keyboard. Edgar Fairchild's day job in the 1920s was recording producer at Ampico, where he supervised many of Rachmaninov's piano roll recordings. Try the clip of Fairchild and Lindholm to see how brilliant popular pianists could be.
