This outstanding reproduction fortepiano represents the culmination of Viennese piano development up to the time of Schubert’s death.  The instrument already boasts a 6 and a half octave compass and the tone is markedly fuller and more robust than the smaller 5-octave instruments of the Haydn / Mozart period.  The period sound is especially suitable for performing the romantic repertoire of late-Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Chopin and even Brahms.
