Bluthner 1890's Piano Plays Led Zeppelins Stairway to Heaven

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

One of many videos, but was fun to arrange and record. I listed this 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

Brilliant... not sure what I think of the original.... love this though... I listen regularly.

Er - surely any piano's a machine, programmed by a "living" being?...........

[charleslang]

This is a machine playing. Still great work on the arrangement. I keep coming back to this video because I love it.

When the hammers themseves move close to you, what is this activating? It looks like a reverse damper system! lol. Or is at you are just holding the damper, and releasing it at certain times?

Absolutely beautiful. The blue and gold colors are delightful. Is Bluthner German?

Very nice work, man.

love the sound of this piano,and the playing. sounds fab. difficult to know if same in reality, my laptop has such a small speaker

[lhorwinkle]

You seem to use the soft pedal a lot in this piece. Does this piano have a lost motion compensator?

[lhorwinkle]

Superb. Where did you find a piano arrangement for this? I've only been able to find the guitar tabs.
