Henry Z. Steinway Piano Unveiled

 
(5/25/2007)

To commemorate Henry Z. Steinway’s 91st birthday, Steinway & Sons has introduced the Henry Z. Steinway Limited Edition piano.

The piano is being produced in a series of 91 handcrafted instruments, available in two sizes, each signed by Henry Steinway, great-grandson of Steinway founder Henry Engelhard Steinway.

Featuring late 19th century colonial design elements, the piano has a hand-carved music desk adorned with scroll work and its namesake’s initials. Atop each leg is a hand-carved floral medallion, while the legs are carved with straight barrel-fluted pillars that match the lyre pedals and bench.

On the inner rim, each piano bears a brass medallion honoring the four generations of the Steinway family members who led the company: Henry E., William, Theodore, and Henry Z. The medallion also displays the limited-edition series number of the instrument.

The Henry Z. Steinway Limited Edition piano is available as a 5’10” Model O and 6’10 ˝” Model B. It is offered in ebony and East Indian rosewood finishes. Prices range from $71,000 to $125,400.

In 1955, Henry Steinway became the last family member to lead the company and did so as president for 22 years. He continues to travel to promote Steinway pianos.
