Musik - - Wagner, Richard. Lithographiertes Faksimile eines eigenhändigen Dankesbriefes mit Unterschrift, vermutlich als Firmenwerbung für Steinway angefertigt. Datiert Hannover, 12.IV.1875, der Druck wohl wenig später. 12,5 x 20 cm. Am Oberrand auf Karton aufgelegt (größtenteils gelöst).Berühmter Dank Wagners für den zu einem Konzert in Hannover von Steinway geliehenen Flügel. Steinway wirbt noch heute auf seiner Website mit einer englischen Übersetzung der Zeilen. Veröffentlicht wurden sie bereits Januar 1878 in der "Deutschen Musik-Zeitung" (Jahrgang V, Nr. 1, S. 10). Danach war der Empänger der Steinway-Agent Wilhelm Geertz in Hannover, der Wortlaut: "Herzlichen Dank für den unvergleichlich schönen Steinway-Flügel, der jedenfalls eines besseren Klavierspielers werth ist, als Ihres sehr dankbaren Richard Wagners." Wagner erhielt später in Bayreuth von Steinway einen Flügel zum Geschenk. - Faltspuren, stockfleckig.
Lot 115
STEINWAY pianola-piano, first quarter of the 20th century.Measurements: 134 x 159 x 77,5 cm.Early 20th century pianola-piano with Aeolian's Metrostyle Themodist Temponamic playing system, in use between approximately 1913 and 1923. Aeolian Company mechanisms were mainly installed in pianos manufactured by the Aeolian Company, such as the Weber, Steck, Wheelock and Stroud. They were also available on Steinway pianos through an exclusive agreement. Aeolian had been under pressure to manufacture the mechanism for Steinway pianos, but Aeolian had no interest in establishing a relationship with a company it saw as direct competition. So, to satisfy Steinway, Aeolian agreed to stop promoting its Weber brand as a luxury piano firm, and also to stop sponsoring concerts by Paderewski and other great pianists of the day. The agreement also stipulated that Aeolian was to purchase a certain number of Steinway pianos per year, regardless of market demand.The mechanical piano was invented in Paris by Debain around 1850. His system consisted of adding to an upright piano a second set of hammers set in motion by a system of levers. Other pianos were later built on similar principles. The model known simply as the handle piano became very widespread in Italy and England, and from the end of the 19th century a large number of different systems were produced, which competed for the clientele of non-musician amateurs, cafés, etc. Later, the pianola, patented in 1898, would work with a compressed air mechanism.Founded in 1853 in New York by the German immigrant Heinrich E. Steinweg, who by then had already made almost five hundred pianos, Steinway & Sons was one of the main firms responsible for the development of the modern piano, especially during the forty years following its founding, when the company developed almost half of the one hundred and twenty-five patents it holds. Steinway's revolutionary designs, as well as the exceptional quality of its workmanship, earned the firm important international recognition from the very beginning. From 1855 onwards, it won gold medals at many exhibitions in the United States and Europe, most notably the Grand Gold Medal of Honour at the Paris Exposition of 1867. Steinway & Sons was the first American company to receive such a medal, and soon became the favourite of many members of the European aristocracy and the world's greatest pianists. To avoid import costs, Steinway opened its first European factory in 1880, in the German city of Hamburg. Ten years later, the company obtained its first royal warrant, from Queen Victoria of England. In the following years, Stewinway's client list would include the Prince of Wales and other members of European royalty and nobility. Soon it would also become a supplier to many other European royal houses, including Italy, Norway, Russia, Spain and Sweden, and even, in the East, to the Persian royal house.
