List,

I just happened upon this post on another list:

<<Anyway....... here's the scoop, in my own style:

Charles Walter just bought out Langer International, the action maker in 
England.

Now, let's read about it in a salesman's textbook (brochure style)

Langer International (formerly known as Herrburger Brooks Ltd.) has built a 
reputation as one of the world's finest handcrafted piano action makers. 
Located deep in the Sherwood Forest of Robin Hood fame, highly skilled 
craftsmen using the finest raw materials available from all over the world 
have been carefully handcrafting some of the world's finest piano actions for 
over a century. 

Langer actions have been the choice of many of the world's finest pianos. For 
many years this fine action maker was a subsidiary of Kimball International, 
maker of the famous Bosendorfer pianos of Vienna, Austria. Known for their 
extremely well balanced and refined touch, Langer actions provide unsurpassed 
control capable of meeting the demands of the world's most demanding 
musicians.

Among the many legendary piano makers to recognize the fine quality of the 
actions built by Langer International is the Charles Walter Piano Company of 
Elkhart, Indiana. Makers of one of the world's finest pianos, Walter pianos 
are completely handcrafted in limited numbers in the old world tradition, 
using the finest materials and superior designs. 

In their constant pursuit of perfection, the Charles Walter Piano Company of 
Elkhart Indiana is pleased to announce the acquisition Langer International. 
The merger of talent and experience available between these two companies, 
combined with their shared committment to the pursuit of excellence, will 
prove to be a formidable team. This acquisition gives Walter total control 
over the quality of the actions, and makes them the only premium piano maker 
to own and control their own action supplier. >>

The auther is identified only as "Larry", apparently a piano dealer in 
Atlanta, GA.
