The World of Pianos : Fascination with an Instrument

Edited by C. Bechstein and Berenice Kupper

Published by Nicolaische Verlagsbuchhandlung, 2003. First Edition. Hardback book with dust jacket measuring approx 30 x 25cm. 143 pages. Beautifully illustrated with b&w photographs.

A very good clean copy with no names or writing. Very clean.

This is the company history of one of the finest piano manufacturers in the history of piano building. No, not Steinway! This is the story of Carl Bechstein Piano, Germany. Within the pages of this book there are many fine photos as well as articles (testimonials) by concert pianists. The history is interesting for anyone who owns a Bechstein piano as the company has had its ups and downs being in Germany through two World Wars. Through times good and bad the company remains the its founder's family. A well produced book of interest to a limited audience but certainly to anyone fortunate enough to enjoy a C.Bechstein piano.
