Bluthner 1890's upright piano - Playing Wild & Fast Boogie

This is just one of my restored pianos that I would like to sell as I have to make room for another piano.

Fun to make!!

Just one of many videos I am listing to show how a fully restored early Bluthner upright plays!
The piano is straight strung and over damped!
Many people view this design as inferior compared to overstrung/underdamped pianos because a lot of furniture manufactures in the early 1900's decided to try and make pianos with know real knowledge.

With Bluthner's & Bechstein's this design and quality often out performs many lesser well known overstrung/underdamped pianos.

I have a lot of other pianos in my collection and over this year I will record how the music sounds on the following: Bluthner Style 7 Aliquot grand, 3 Bluthner uprights, Ibach double overstrung grand, Bechstein model III upright, John Brinsmead 5' 2" grand and a Ronish upright.

Thank you for viewing,

Robert

Actually, what you're seeing here is the escapement mechanism, the hammers, and at the bottom are the dampers.

Man sollte die restaurierten Senioren wirklich nicht unterschätzen... Hatte selbst mal einen antiken Oberdämpfer von Blüthner... vielleicht nicht wirklich perfekt, aber dennoch genial... ;-) Danke fürs Einstellen!
