Important Find by Palace Pianos
on: October 01, 2010, 06:31:01 AM
As we work to find these amazing pieces, we sometime come across these rare and unique pieces by chance only. This is one of those times:
Vertical Piano by Pleyel serial number 10112 delivered September of the year 1843. This piano was played by Chopin at the residence in Paris of the Countess Natalia Obreskoff.
Pleyel Oblique Upright serial number 10113 year 1843 was sent to Chopins apartment at Square D`Orleans the same month and year. The curious part is that the two pianos were one both chosen the same day, and left the atelier of Pleyel the same day. Whether there is any significance in this, we do not know as of yet, but we are trying to find out...
