Description
Pleyel upright piano in a special condition only for the ones will appreciate it! Very beautiful sound from a romantic period of time that we all forgot! In perfect mechanical condition!
A small History of this special piano!!!
The piano was owned to Mrs. Marie, a French pianist who lived in Greece for years and specifically in Maroussi! In 1948 Mr. Bouzeas, the father of the later lyric soprano Iros Bouzea (1936-1997) bought the piano from Mrs. Marie as a gift to the then 12-year-old Iro to study piano and opera ! Mr. Bouzeas's family was artistic since his other daughter Roidas Bouzeas also studied piano and finally became a professional painter! Iro studied piano and opera at the National Conservatory of Athens with the Swiss Irma Tryningen-Iliadou, a well-known Lyric Vocal Teacher of the time! All 3 of her children studied piano later! The piano was sold in 1996 a year before Iro's death to the current owner Mr George who studied piano for years! Mr. George's wish is to go to an artistic person or family who will appreciate the piano and its heritage! Pleyel is a huge company that created an era in technology and evolution of pianos!
