When this Johan Berent piano re-emerged from its 246-year seclusion, mostly spent within the original family, it created an immediate sensation. The advertisement for this particular piano in the Pennsylvania Packet in early 1775, is among the best-known notices from colonial times in America. Long thought lost, and in a state of disrepair, this gem of US musical history is now in the Sigal Music Museum collection and has been restored to playing condition.
This concert will mark the first time this instrument will be played publicly in well over 100 years. Please come celebrate the birth of the US piano manufacturing industry as we celebrate this piano's 250th birthday. Pianists Robin Morace and Stephanie Schmidt will perform a program of music highlighting this instrument's distinct voice.
