[Encore Pianos]

Hi Richard:

 

Where did you get these books?  I would be interested in them, and would
like to know the source.

 

Thanks,

 

Will Truitt

Ah, right.   There is one of his pianos at the BBC in Cardiff, but with
solid panels.  I recently bought two excellent books by Alistair Laurence, a
history of the Broadwood Barless piano and a history of 5 London piano
makers (Brinsmead, Challen, Collard & Collard, Welmar, Danemann.   Very well
written and informative.  It is interesting to read that Danemann were the
last British makers of 9' concert grands and had one in the Royal Festival
Hall when it opened in the early fifties.
