His blend of music and comedy earned him the nicknames "The Clown Prince of Denmark," "The Unmelancholy Dane," and "The Great Dane." See more

21.01.2022 I could tell apart any sound and any tone just by listening to it once. Even after 100 years, this Granny can still play over a thousand pieces from Mozart to Beethoven flawlessly.

16.01.2022 Victor Borge and Leonid Hambro play "Hungarian Rapsody No. 2 by Liszt". This is so difficult as funny

15.01.2022 During the Victorian era, pianos and organs were shipped by the only means available -Ship, freight train, riverboat, horse & buggy and wagons. Stories of... the family piano being shipped over mountains by wagon or down a river by boat or hauled across the desert by horse & buggy. Imagine the elements that these pianos were subject to! These instruments would often spend months on end in the heat and cold being moved at a snails pace from one destination to another before finally reaching their new homes. Often pianos traveled hundreds of miles by these crude means of transportation, only to arrive safe and sound, and in reasonable tune! That alone is a testament to the quality and durability of these antique instruments. There are stories of old-timers in the USA who would take a wagon with a piano loaded on the back and venture out into the countryside, only to pretend to have a wheel or axle "about to break" in front of a rural farmhouse. As a favor, the farmer's family would allow the salesman to leave his piano in the home for safe-keeping while the salesmen took the wagon for repair - often over a period of several days. More often than not, the salesman would return to find that the farmer's daughters had taken a liking to the piano while he was gone! Imagine how many pianos were sold this way, all unbeknownst to the farmer and his wife! By the 'teens and 'twenties, pianos were still being shipped from major industrial areas by train, but the introduction of the automobile made home delivery a much easier task. Early trucks were equipped with special piano lifting mechanisms that would allow one man to load a piano at the factory, transport it to the suburbs and countryside, and unload it in the yard to demonstrate to a potential buying customer. Today, piano moving is somewhat of a science, if not an art to itself. There are a handful of specialized freight companies that move nothing but pianos & organs across countries and internationally. These companies have all the necessary experience, equipment, and knowledge necessary to make sure that pianos are safely moved from the factory to the store and to your home without damage or difficulty. It is amazing how easy they can make it look! Raymond Day-Hakker, Golden Era Piano Museum. With special thanks to the Antique Piano Shop USA, for "The easy lifter piano loader" photos.

13.01.2022 An #upright piano made by #Sebastien #Mercier, a Paris #piano maker known for his fantastic designed upright pianos. this piano was built around circa 1840. at ...that time it is said that "Mr. Mercier was one of the few to succeed in improving the construction of his instruments. The #elegance, the small volume of his pianos, excluded neither the strength, nor the #purity of the sounds, nor any of the other advantages that artists and mechanics seek in the organic parts of a piano." fantastic piano for #diplay within a home for those wanting to create an #antique atmosphere.

08.01.2022 I am working with a grand piano, from Pehr Rosenwall (Stockholm) from about 1840. It is the first piano I try to restore, so I am pretty new in these, but I enj...oy it very much. I have a few questions: 1. Rosenwall took patent on a tuning mechanism, in the late 1830s. I beleve it is good, but it is hard to find a key to tune it. The screw is cornish and 3,6-4,0mm each side. Has anyone thoghts how to find a key to this? (Picture 1) 2. In the piano there is small black dots (picture 2). How do I remove them? 3. I bought a dry lubricant with PTFE, to make the keypins work. All keys are stock. Is PTFE lubricant fine for this and make even to make the hammers work better? https://www.biltema.se/redirect/productrelative//2000044433 4. Where do you buy pianoparts? I live in Sweden Thank you
