Theodor August Heintzman (birth name Theodore August Heintzmann) (19 May 1817 – 25 July 1899) was a German-Canadian pianomanufacturer (Heintzman & Co.) and inventor, best known for founding the piano company which still bears his name.
Born in Berlin, Heintzman worked in various manufacturing jobs as a youth, eventually settling in at a German piano factory. In 1840, he married his boss' daughter and, following the lead of her family, immigrated to the United States in 1850. Stalker xray engine crash fix pc.
It is believed by the Heintzman family that Theodor immigrated on the same boat as Heinrich Engelhard Steinweg, another piano-maker, and the two attempted to start a business in New York City. They soon parted ways, however, with Heintzman taking his family to Buffalo where he started again; Steinweg eventually changed his name to Steinway and became a successful piano manufacturer in his own right. In Buffalo, Heintzman worked at Keogh Piano Company (located at what is now Fireman's Park) before he started the a piano forte firm with Francis Drew and Henry Annowsky (1853 as Drew, Heintzman and Annowsky at 10 and Court Street[1]),[2] which he ran until it went under in 1858. From 1858 to 1860 Heintzman ran Western Pianoforte Manufactory Company in Hamilton, Ontario (founded in 1856 by Charles Thomas).[3]

In 1860, Heintzman moved to Toronto, where he constructed his first four pianos in the kitchen of his son-in-law; these sold well, and with the proceeds he was able to found Heintzman & Co., Ltd., setting up his primary warehouse first on Toronto's York Street, soon moving to King Street near Yonge.
Heintzman enjoyed a reputation as a grand showman, often performing on his pianos as part of his sales pitch. Of note is that Heintzman took several of his pianos with him on the first trans-Canadian rail trip, which he used both as a means for sale and advertising.
Heintzman pianos soon grew steadily in reputation, and as a result, Heintzman became a very wealthy man. He and his four adult sons (all of whom were in the family business) settled into West Toronto Junction which was, at the time, a separate town from Toronto. Heintzman's estate, built in 1889, was called 'The Birches', and despite some internal modifications, it still stands on Annette Street, across the street from Annette Street Public School. A property developer's plan to tear it down in the early 1980s sparked a protest from local citizens, and a compromise was reached wherein the exterior has been restored in the original Queen Anne Revival style. Two of his sons' homes in the area are also still standing: Herman Heintzman's home on High Park Avenue and George Heinztman's house on Woodside Avenue. A larger estate of George's in Thornhill, Ontario is also still standing. Skyrim best female followers.
The Junction was also home to the primary Heintzman factory prior to the moving of operations to Hanover (today, most Heintzman pianos are made in China). Heintzman Street, a short, dead-end road which runs just north of Dundas Street, formerly led to the Junction factory, which in its heyday employed over 200 craftsmen, making it one of the largest Canadian factories of any kind for its time.

He died in 1899, shortly after the death of his wife.

INTRODUCTION
When the Paduan instrument maker Bartolomeo Cristofori devised his first pianoforte, it is doubtful that he foresaw the overwhelming universal acceptance it eventually achieved. The instrument hit its peak in development and production in the nineteenth century but has continued to maintain its prominent position in the concert world and the home. This ability to endure shows us how vital the instrument has been to our musical environment. The piano celebrated its 300th anniversary in the year 2000, and to help honor the event the first edition of this volume has been updated. The piano volume of the Encyclopedia of Keyboard Instruments highlights the piano’s long evolution up to the year 2002, when this second edition was completed. One will find many subjects that are explored in depth. On the other hand there are subjects that warrant only simple definitions. An earnest attempt has been made to see that new information regarding the piano has been incorporated. In selecting the topics for this volume, every effort was made to be as comprehensive as possible; it is not possible, of course, to cover all piano companies, all piano makers/builders, all countries that produce pianos, and so on. We did, however, attempt to include the most important builders and companies. The composers with entries in the piano volume are there because they had a direct or indirect influence on the development of the instrument, not because they wrote piano music. This volume deals primarily with the instrument itself, although one will find a few ancillary topics, for example, piano music, pedagogy, technic, touch, and the like. The reader will find birth/death dates in the index for most persons mentioned in the volume. Dates were only entered in the text when pertinent to that article. The index will also be useful in locating the many other piano builders/makers and piano companies that are mentioned in the text but not examined in depth. The index is helpful in finding the many individual parts of the piano and where they are discussed. As a cross reference aid, items in the text that are in small caps are article titles and one can investigate further by going directly to the item so marked. I would like to thank Routledge for its insight in producing this second edition of the piano volume, and I thank the many colleagues and specialists who offered their advice. My thanks also to Western Washington University’s excellent music library and its helpful staff. It was a joy working with the many authors who willingly shared their knowledge of the instrument—all experts in their fields. They are truly devoted to the piano and its colorful history. The contributing authors essentially generated this volume. May the piano continue to enrich our lives!

the harpsichord. Gottfried Silbermann devised a cembalo stop that brought a batten fitted with ivory or brass strips against the strings, which produced a short tone of totally different timbre from the pianos. In the twentieth century the PLEYEL company devised a harpsichord stop that interposed brass strips wound around FELT between strings and hammers. Perhaps the oddest modification of tone was the “Dolce Compana” (another linguistic mutilation), patented in 1849 by James A.Gray in the United States and W.P.Parker in England. A rack with heavy weights at one end was attached to the soundboard bridge, and moving a pedal caused the weights to push the bridge—and through it the soundboard—up and down to provide a cumbersome sort of vibrato. No record exists of damage thus inflicted, but many instruments must have objected to this punishment. Several modern experiments in modifying the tone have been asked for by composers. Sheets of paper wound among the strings are a modern sort of “bassoon” stop, and a “luthéal” stop by George Cloetens provides imitations of CIMBALOM, harpsichord, and lute by bringing metal bolts or felt to the strings. A stop that does not exactly fit any of the five classifications above is the wooden rod (14¾ inches long) that Charles Ives calls for in his “Concord Sonata.” This rod, laid across the upper keys, is occasionally struck by the pianist to sound all the notes simultaneously, thus producing tone clusters surpassing even those Henry Cowell demanded from the player’s forearm.

PERFORMANCE PRACTICES— STYLISTIC CONSIDERATIONS Performance practice denotes the study of information relevant to the performance and perception of music in various historical contexts. Such information may be found in manuscript and printed scores, mechanical or electrical recording devices, music and dance treatises, books and letters, media accounts and visual documentation of concert settings, instrument designs and TEMPERAMENTS, and so on. A temporal art, live music can only manifest itself in ever-varied performances, yet it “remains unchanged behind this relativity” (Rosen). The relationship between the absolute and the relative aspects of music constitutes the basic concern of performance practice. Depending on the resolution of this relationship, two orientations have evolved. The first asserts the inherent value of the past, seen as a repository of the composer’s intentions, and hence the source of presumably immutable truths about proper musical performance. By contrast, the second orientation affirms the all-important contribution of the present, seen not necessarily as a corrupting factor but rather as a re-creative one without whose impulse music would ossify into a lifeless repetition of the past. The three major topics of performance practice—notation, perception, and instruments—will be treated from the often conflicting perspectives of the two orientations, and exemplified by findings of contemporary research. Implicit versus Explicit Notation The notation of piano music evolved from lesser to greater explicitness, as typified by the notation of the improvisational aspects of music that, in the eighteenth century, still afforded the performer a considerable degree of creative input. This age of the performer-as-composer was manifested not only in “preluding” (improvising to set the mood and the tonality) and extemporizing (improvising variations on a theme) but also in requiring the performer to prepare or extemporize cadenzas and Eingänge (lead-ins), to embellish and ornament slow movements and rondo reprises, and to realize continuo. Without the performer’s creative input, some of HAYDN’S, MOZART’S, and BEETHOVEN’S solo, chamber, and orchestral pieces remain unfinished works. For posterity, the problem is how and when to improvise. The “how” of improvisation is facilitated by authentic models. Their recurring features intimate a composer’s improvisational style—the relationship between its constant and variable aspects. Pianist Robert D. Levin opts for recreating the spirit of the past without resorting to its letter (in order to re-create the element of surprise inherent in performances of the Classical era when composers rarely published cadenzas, embellishments, and continuo realizations in the scores of concertos).

The “when” of improvisation is determined by context. A fermata on a tonic chord in second inversion implies a cadenza; on a dominant seventh chord, an Eingang; but what of the possibility that some fermatas denote an explicit rather than an implicit meaning (prolongation rather than improvisation)? Controversy also surrounds embellishment and ornamentation. The context that implies their need is the “something missing” that Mozart’s sister Nannerl spotted in a bare melodic outline of the Concerto in D Major, K. 451, second movement. Mozart supplied the deficiency by mailing a lavishly embellished version of the same. If used as a model of explicitness versus implicitness, this example could lead to the recognition of “something missing” in similar spots, such as in Mozart’s Concerto in C Major, K. 503 II: 35–42, shown in one of many possible embellished versions in Fig. 53. (The fingering given for the broken thirds was in common use in the eighteenth century, and it produces an effect that is musically superior to that of modern fingerings.) To be stylistically proper, the density of embellishments must suit that of their environment (the very principle that enabled Mozart’s sister to spot the “something missing”). When observed, this principle tolerates even the most lavish embellishments (such as occur in the Minuet of Mozart’s Concerto in E-flat Major, K. 271, as well as in the Variations K. 264, 354, 455, 573, and 613). To ensure proper embellishment of such controversial spots as Mozart’s Concerto in A Major, K. 488 II: 80–82, 86– 87, 90–91, one must first create a proper environment by embellishing the recapitulation (II: 53–68). Without such preliminary contextual embellishment, even the most reserved elaboration of the controversial spots will seem excessive. A model for embellishing the recapitulation may be found in the explicitly notated slow movement of Mozart’s Piano Sonata in F Major, K. 332, as printed in the original editions of Artaria and Schott (as opposed to the implicit notation of the composer’s autograph manuscript). Whereas the spirit of improvisation was manifested in ever-changing forms during the age of the composer-as-performer and performer-as-composer, its letter gained supremacy with the advent of Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto of 1809. In this work, the composer has curtailed the performer’s improvisational input not only through the explicit notation of the cadenzas and the embellishments but also through the spelling out of the soloist’s continuo activity during the orchestral tuttis. The explicit continuo notation in the “Emperor” is in sharp contrast to the implicit nota tion of continuo in the Classical symphonic repertoire, where the keyboard player’s activity is notated explicitly only in exceptional cases, such as the eleven measures of arpeggiated obbligato accompaniment in high register at the end of Haydn’s Symphony in B-flat Major, no. 98. Notational Conventions versus Face Value Interpretation The Baroque convention of notating triplet rhythms as dotted figures (J.S.Bach: Partita no. 1, Corrente) was adopted by Mozart (Concerto in B-flat Major, K. 450 I: 56), Franz Schubert (Klavierstück in E-flat Minor, D. 946 no. 1, second episode—see Wiener Urtext, preface by Paul Badura-Skoda), FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN (Prelude op. 28, no. 9, autograph manuscript), ROBERT SCHUMANN (Romanze op. 32, no. 3, and Phantasiestück op. 111, no. 2, Peters Edition, Adolf Ruthardt editor), Aram Ilich Khachaturyan (Trio in G Minor for Clarinet, Violin and Piano, last movement), and so on. In uncorrupted sources, vertical alignments should indicate rhythmic execution. Ambiguity arises because of the composer’s occasional misalignment, or the engraver’s unawareness of this notational convention. Given the occasional persistence of Baroque notational conventions in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it is possible that Schumann might have intended that the dotted rhythms of his Kinderszenen op. 15, no. 1, be played in continuous triplets (see the alignment in the composer’s autograph manuscripts). Similarly, Sergei Prokofiev’s time signature in his Piano Sonata in A Minor op. 28 might imply the same performance practice as J.S.Bach’s time signature (alla breve= ) in his Prelude in D Major from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier, volume 2. The concept of pulse as opposed to meter has far-reaching consequences for performance. In much ofJ. S. Bach’s music, the “C” time signature implies two pulses per measure (as opposed to its later meaning of four beats per measure). In this sense, the Fugue in C Minor from Bach’s Das Wohltemperierte Klavier, volume, I, should be felt as having two (not four) pulses per measure (in the same sense that the Prelude in C Major from the same volume contains only two pulses per measure). Awareness of the distinction between pulse and beat affects not only the phrasing but also the tempo. For example, the above-mentioned fugue will most likely be played faster when felt in two pulses per measure. Most important, awareness

of the half-measure units clarifies the work’s structure, since the motivic, rhythmic, and harmonic units consistently coincide with the half-measure concept of the piece. In Beethoven’s Sonata in E Major op. 109, the basic triple pulse established at the beginning of the last movement’s Variation no. 6 should be retained throughout the remainder of the piece regardless of the notated changes in time signature (from ¾ to and back to 3/4). Perhaps unaware of this notational convention, or possibly in spite of it, Artur Schnabel insists in his edition of this sonata that one must retain the face value of the eighth-note rather than the time value of the opening pulse. This theory results in a rhythmic conversion within the same piece that is unknown in the Classical era: the transition from ¾ to proposed by Schnabel entails the switch from a beat equaling a quarter-note to one equaling a dotted quarternote, where the time value of the dotted quarter is longer by one eighth-note than the previous beat. Curiously, when faced with the changes in time signature of the variation movement of Beethoven’s Sonata in C Minor op. 111, Schnabel admits that his theory cannot be applied there because his conversion ratio between variations would yield an unplayable tempo. Notation versus Perception Neither Urtext editions nor the mere use of period instruments can reveal the inner life of music as perceived by the composer. To regain that perception, a working knowledge of compositional techniques is required. Most composers unify single and multimovement works by deriving their motives from the opening measures (Arnold Schoenberg’s twelve-tone row is a modern adaptation of this timeless principle). For example, all movements of Beethoven’s “Waldstein” Sonata in C Major op. 53 begin with a single pitch in low register followed by at least two repeated notes in higher register. Known as the il filo principle (the thread that unites single movements and larger works into an organic unity), these relationships can best be discovered by retracing the music from the end to its beginning. This yields the musical “genes” out of which whole compositions blossom forth as though improvised. However, the “genes” often elude the eye, as in Mozart’s Fantasia in C Minor, K. 475. To reveal the voice leading of its opening, the notes must be redistributed between the two hands, and rebeamed as in Fig. 54, where Mozart’s implicit notation is substituted with its explicit meaning. The true voice leading of this opening is very difficult to guess from the implicit notation, yet even its explicit version poses one of the most difficult problems of TOUCH differentiation in keyboard literature. The complexity of the voice leading is a result of the composer’s orchestral concept, and this is equally difficult to realize on both period and modern instruments. Nevertheless, it is the performer’s duty to examine the author’s compositional style in order to discover these sometimes elusive motivic “threads” and to attempt to approximate their orchestral effect on the piano or FORTEPIANO. Original versus Modern Instruments If authenticity in performance means “to approximate the composer’s intentions as an act of truth and fidelity” (Newman), then the realization of this ideal requires at times “to strip away the accretions and the traditions of the past (including those accepted by the composer himself)” (Rosen). Some effects intended by the composer can only be achieved on modern instruments. For example, the subito fortissimo climax in Felix Mendelssohn’s Rondo Capriccioso (Henle Urtext) requires that the left hand play an octave on the downbeat of measure 227; yet this octave was unavailable on Mendelssohn’s own fortepiano, and has become available only on the later fortepianos and the modern pianos. Another example is FRANZ LISZT’S Sonata in B Minor, which seems to end on a short note in low register. It has been suggested, however, that Liszt may have intended an orchestral effect—the prolongation of the B-major tonic that would thus end the piece in high rather than in low register. This orchestral effect became possible on the piano only later, with the adoption of the improved STEINWAY SOSTENUTO mechanism of 1876. There are but few pieces in piano literature that do require the instrument for which they were written (for example, Béla Bartók’s Rhapsody op. 1, for piano and orchestra, written for the seven and one-half-octave range of modern BÖSEN-DORFERS that is unavailable on modern Steinways). Yet composers did not encourage dogmatic attitudes toward the ranges and the sounds of various instruments. The autograph of Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto contains two versions of the keyboard part that accommodate the ranges of fortepianos popular in his day. This cavalier attitude toward the medium of performance is evident in the widespread use of the generic term cembalo that designates an infinite variety of ranges and sounds of both harpsichords and fortepianos from 1700
277
to well into the first half of the nineteenth century. For example, Beethoven still uses this term on twelve occasions in the fullscore autograph of the “Emperor” Concerto (1809), where it designates any fortepiano of any range or sound available at the time of the performance. Beethoven did entertain the idea of recomposing his earlier keyboard works in order to eliminate the compromises made to accommodate the limited range of the early fortepianos; unfortunately, he “never quite realized that new edition” (Newman). Even BRAHMS’S love for STREICHER pianos did not prevent him from using a host of other pianos during his concert tours, including two Steinways and one KNABE. A noteworthy ideal of the great pianists of the golden age of piano playing (the Romantic tradition) has always been to transcend the sound of the piano per se: “when he [Liszt] played, the instrument did not sound like a piano…it was an unspeakable sound, which I, now after twenty-seven years, still hear clearly” (Leyetchkiss). Though “authentic” instruments have become “a kind of religion” (Towe), “the spurious notion that interpretations on period instruments are intrinsically more novel or persuasive than those on modern instruments needs to be abandoned” (Winter). Unfortunately, many present-day pianists are ignorant of certain PEDAL effects that prompted Anton Rubinstein to declare that “the pedal is the soul of the piano.” Understandably, present-day fortepianists wage campaigns aimed at exposing the alleged limitations of the modern piano. Such limitations are, however, not inherent in the construction of the modern GRAND. Contrary to popular opinion, it is indeed possible to produce on the modern piano any gradual or sudden diminuendo effect on a single note or chord. For example, the forte piano (fp) effect on the first chord of Beethoven’s “Pathétique” Sonata in C Minor op. 13 can be achieved as follows: first, the right (DAMPER) pedal is depressed prior to attacking the first chord; then the first chord in played as loudly as is needed to approximate the sound of a full orchestra. While the pedal is held fully depressed, the fingers are completely released. As soon as diminuendo is desired, the depressed pedal is gradually released until the dampers begin to touch the STRINGS—thus gradually eliminating the rich overtones while reducing the dynamic level. The rate of diminuendo is determined by the speed with which the damper pedal is released. When the leftover vibration in the strings is reduced to the desired piano effect, the pedal is released no farther, and the performer proceeds to play the piano chords in the normal manner. Due to the modern grand’s greater contrast between forte and piano, the implied effect of a full orchestral diminuendo is more successfully approximated on the modern grand than on the fortepiano. More important, this case demonstrates that a knowledgeable performer using the modern grand does not accept passively the rate of sound decay of the instrument but actively manipulates it. Due to the rich overtones of the modern grand, it is even possible to approximate a crescendo effect on a single chord by gradually depressing the pedal after the chord is struck. Nevertheless, “you have to pay for everything that you gain with a corresponding loss” (Towe), and some effects easily attainable on the fortepiano are next to impossible on the modern grand. By challenging performers on modern instruments, the historical performance movement has inspired effects that were considered to be impossible on the modern grand. For example, by insisting that “the soloist in a Mozart piano concerto must be involved in the sound of the tuttis” Nikolaus Harnoncourt has challenged modern pianists to discover the technical and musical means that would enable them to perform continuo “so that it didn’t sound like Rachmaninoff, and so that the piano is still there in the tuttis” (Towe). Recent reviews that exalt the sound of the modern grand functioning in the dual role of continuo and solo instrument prove not only the little explored possibilities of modern instruments but demonstrate also the fructifying effect of the historical performance challenge. Live versus Recorded Performances “Music recorded by machines hardens into something stationary,” that is, deprived of the very life of music—its “variability”; “if mechanical music were to flood the world to the detriment of live music,” then it would “develop into a calamity equivalent to the seven Egyptian plagues” (Bartók). It is sign of the times that, thirty years after Bartók’s plea that recordings be used only for pedagogic or scientific purposes, Glenn Gould saluted the “time-transcending luxuries of recording” (i.e., splicing) while predicting the disappearance of public concerts in the twenty-first century. Ideally, mechanical or electrical recording devices “offer the possibility for the composer to pass on to the world… minute nuances which cannot be expressed notationally” (Bartók). By converting recorded performances into scores that translate the relative durations of notes into proportionally longer or shorter bars (i.e., time equals space), László Somfai has pioneered a method of translating the aural experience into a visual one. His studies of Bartók’s own performances of “Evening in Transylvania” (from Ten Easy Piano Pieces) has shown that the four recordings (including two on piano rolls) and the two distinct editions of this piece yield six variants with individual traits. Nevertheless, certain basic characteristics of Bartók’s parlando rubato rubat remain relatively constant over a period of several decades. But the attempt to single out one “ideal” performance is a futile effort for, as Bartók put it, “it would not be advisable to listen to these compositions perpet ually like that [i.e., played by the composer]…because it would cover the composition with boredom … The best imaginable phonography, therefore, will never be able to act as a substitute for completely live music… Mechanical music is a manufacturing industry; live music is an individual handicraft.”

Conclusion Recent studies have shown that the cultural environment of bygone ages was less concerned with sharply defined concepts and practices than our own. In previous cultures, the concepts of consistency and standardization as we apply them today were the exception rather than the rule. This explains the great variety of approaches to notation, instrument building, and performance that have flourished concomitantly in the past. If the historical performance movement will resist the temptation to reduce performance practice and instrument building to a set of externally applied rules and regulations, it can bring about a renaissance of our own musical life. Perhaps the most pressing challenge facing today’s historical performance movement is to find the ways and means of resurrecting a perception of musical practice that was paramount in the consciousness of bygone ages: the perception of the spiritual aspect of music making. In an age in which tendencies towards consumerism threaten to reduce music to a commodity aimed at providing sensual entertainment, the performance-practice movement may play an important role in regaining the perception of the “inner nature of music” (Steiner).

PERIODICALS Considering the pervasiveness of the pianoforte in the concert life of the past two hundred years, and the fascination that the instrument has maintained among composers, it is curious to find what a small place it has made in the journal literature. Of more than five thousand musical periodicals listed in a most recent inventory (Fellinger, 1980) only seventy-five titles include the word “piano” or any of its translations. (A few more began publishing after 1980.) Furthermore, many of those journals had the briefest of lives, and several others require the piano to share space with other keyboard instruments. BARTOLOMEO CRISTOFORI’S invention did receive early notice in periodicals of the time; indeed the first musical periodical of them all—Critica musica, edited by Johann Mattheson (Hamburg, 1722/23–1725)—printed a translation of SCIPIONE MAFFEI’S premier account. This had first appeared in the Giornale de’ letterati d’Italia in 1711, as “Nuova inventione d’un Gravecembalo col piano e forte” Although made known in Italy and Germany while the inventor was still building his instruments, the pianoforte did not gain quick acceptance. It was mid-century before the musical values of the instrument were established (assisted by the approval of JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH, CARL PHILIPP EMANUEL BACH, and Johann Joachim Quantz) and a distinct repertoire began to be composed. Finally in the 1760s there were public concerts, and piano building began to be a significant industry. Yet in the eighteenth century there was sparse writing about the new musical voice. After the appearance of the Maffei article the next study in a periodical seems to have been by Niels Brelin in the 1739 year-book of the Swedish Research Academy. This piece, suggesting improvements to the piano mechanism, was translated into German and published in the second volume of Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg’s journal Historisch-kristische Beyträge zur Aufnahme der Musik (Berlin, 1754/ 55–1760/78). Brelin wrote some further essays, in the 1757 and 1760 yearbooks, but they remained in Swedish only. Anyone who cares to scan the contents of the principal eighteenth-century musical periodicals may find the task less forbidding than it sounds, since one fine scholar, Johann Forkel, has compiled a good journal-by-journal summary (Forkel,

INTRODUCTION
When the Paduan instrument maker Bartolomeo Cristofori devised his first pianoforte, it is doubtful that he foresaw the overwhelming universal acceptance it eventually achieved. The instrument hit its peak in development and production in the nineteenth century but has continued to maintain its prominent position in the concert world and the home. This ability to endure shows us how vital the instrument has been to our musical environment. The piano celebrated its 300th anniversary in the year 2000, and to help honor the event the first edition of this volume has been updated. The piano volume of the Encyclopedia of Keyboard Instruments highlights the piano’s long evolution up to the year 2002, when this second edition was completed. One will find many subjects that are explored in depth. On the other hand there are subjects that warrant only simple definitions. An earnest attempt has been made to see that new information regarding the piano has been incorporated. In selecting the topics for this volume, every effort was made to be as comprehensive as possible; it is not possible, of course, to cover all piano companies, all piano makers/builders, all countries that produce pianos, and so on. We did, however, attempt to include the most important builders and companies. The composers with entries in the piano volume are there because they had a direct or indirect influence on the development of the instrument, not because they wrote piano music. This volume deals primarily with the instrument itself, although one will find a few ancillary topics, for example, piano music, pedagogy, technic, touch, and the like. The reader will find birth/death dates in the index for most persons mentioned in the volume. Dates were only entered in the text when pertinent to that article. The index will also be useful in locating the many other piano builders/makers and piano companies that are mentioned in the text but not examined in depth. The index is helpful in finding the many individual parts of the piano and where they are discussed. As a cross reference aid, items in the text that are in small caps are article titles and one can investigate further by going directly to the item so marked. I would like to thank Routledge for its insight in producing this second edition of the piano volume, and I thank the many colleagues and specialists who offered their advice. My thanks also to Western Washington University’s excellent music library and its helpful staff. It was a joy working with the many authors who willingly shared their knowledge of the instrument—all experts in their fields. They are truly devoted to the piano and its colorful history. The contributing authors essentially generated this volume. May the piano continue to enrich our lives!

the harpsichord. Gottfried Silbermann devised a cembalo stop that brought a batten fitted with ivory or brass strips against the strings, which produced a short tone of totally different timbre from the pianos. In the twentieth century the PLEYEL company devised a harpsichord stop that interposed brass strips wound around FELT between strings and hammers. Perhaps the oddest modification of tone was the “Dolce Compana” (another linguistic mutilation), patented in 1849 by James A.Gray in the United States and W.P.Parker in England. A rack with heavy weights at one end was attached to the soundboard bridge, and moving a pedal caused the weights to push the bridge—and through it the soundboard—up and down to provide a cumbersome sort of vibrato. No record exists of damage thus inflicted, but many instruments must have objected to this punishment. Several modern experiments in modifying the tone have been asked for by composers. Sheets of paper wound among the strings are a modern sort of “bassoon” stop, and a “luthéal” stop by George Cloetens provides imitations of CIMBALOM, harpsichord, and lute by bringing metal bolts or felt to the strings. A stop that does not exactly fit any of the five classifications above is the wooden rod (14¾ inches long) that Charles Ives calls for in his “Concord Sonata.” This rod, laid across the upper keys, is occasionally struck by the pianist to sound all the notes simultaneously, thus producing tone clusters surpassing even those Henry Cowell demanded from the player’s forearm.

PERFORMANCE PRACTICES— STYLISTIC CONSIDERATIONS Performance practice denotes the study of information relevant to the performance and perception of music in various historical contexts. Such information may be found in manuscript and printed scores, mechanical or electrical recording devices, music and dance treatises, books and letters, media accounts and visual documentation of concert settings, instrument designs and TEMPERAMENTS, and so on. A temporal art, live music can only manifest itself in ever-varied performances, yet it “remains unchanged behind this relativity” (Rosen). The relationship between the absolute and the relative aspects of music constitutes the basic concern of performance practice. Depending on the resolution of this relationship, two orientations have evolved. The first asserts the inherent value of the past, seen as a repository of the composer’s intentions, and hence the source of presumably immutable truths about proper musical performance. By contrast, the second orientation affirms the all-important contribution of the present, seen not necessarily as a corrupting factor but rather as a re-creative one without whose impulse music would ossify into a lifeless repetition of the past. The three major topics of performance practice—notation, perception, and instruments—will be treated from the often conflicting perspectives of the two orientations, and exemplified by findings of contemporary research. Implicit versus Explicit Notation The notation of piano music evolved from lesser to greater explicitness, as typified by the notation of the improvisational aspects of music that, in the eighteenth century, still afforded the performer a considerable degree of creative input. This age of the performer-as-composer was manifested not only in “preluding” (improvising to set the mood and the tonality) and extemporizing (improvising variations on a theme) but also in requiring the performer to prepare or extemporize cadenzas and Eingänge (lead-ins), to embellish and ornament slow movements and rondo reprises, and to realize continuo. Without the performer’s creative input, some of HAYDN’S, MOZART’S, and BEETHOVEN’S solo, chamber, and orchestral pieces remain unfinished works. For posterity, the problem is how and when to improvise. The “how” of improvisation is facilitated by authentic models. Their recurring features intimate a composer’s improvisational style—the relationship between its constant and variable aspects. Pianist Robert D. Levin opts for recreating the spirit of the past without resorting to its letter (in order to re-create the element of surprise inherent in performances of the Classical era when composers rarely published cadenzas, embellishments, and continuo realizations in the scores of concertos).

The “when” of improvisation is determined by context. A fermata on a tonic chord in second inversion implies a cadenza; on a dominant seventh chord, an Eingang; but what of the possibility that some fermatas denote an explicit rather than an implicit meaning (prolongation rather than improvisation)? Controversy also surrounds embellishment and ornamentation. The context that implies their need is the “something missing” that Mozart’s sister Nannerl spotted in a bare melodic outline of the Concerto in D Major, K. 451, second movement. Mozart supplied the deficiency by mailing a lavishly embellished version of the same. If used as a model of explicitness versus implicitness, this example could lead to the recognition of “something missing” in similar spots, such as in Mozart’s Concerto in C Major, K. 503 II: 35–42, shown in one of many possible embellished versions in Fig. 53. (The fingering given for the broken thirds was in common use in the eighteenth century, and it produces an effect that is musically superior to that of modern fingerings.) To be stylistically proper, the density of embellishments must suit that of their environment (the very principle that enabled Mozart’s sister to spot the “something missing”). When observed, this principle tolerates even the most lavish embellishments (such as occur in the Minuet of Mozart’s Concerto in E-flat Major, K. 271, as well as in the Variations K. 264, 354, 455, 573, and 613). To ensure proper embellishment of such controversial spots as Mozart’s Concerto in A Major, K. 488 II: 80–82, 86– 87, 90–91, one must first create a proper environment by embellishing the recapitulation (II: 53–68). Without such preliminary contextual embellishment, even the most reserved elaboration of the controversial spots will seem excessive. A model for embellishing the recapitulation may be found in the explicitly notated slow movement of Mozart’s Piano Sonata in F Major, K. 332, as printed in the original editions of Artaria and Schott (as opposed to the implicit notation of the composer’s autograph manuscript). Whereas the spirit of improvisation was manifested in ever-changing forms during the age of the composer-as-performer and performer-as-composer, its letter gained supremacy with the advent of Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto of 1809. In this work, the composer has curtailed the performer’s improvisational input not only through the explicit notation of the cadenzas and the embellishments but also through the spelling out of the soloist’s continuo activity during the orchestral tuttis. The explicit continuo notation in the “Emperor” is in sharp contrast to the implicit nota tion of continuo in the Classical symphonic repertoire, where the keyboard player’s activity is notated explicitly only in exceptional cases, such as the eleven measures of arpeggiated obbligato accompaniment in high register at the end of Haydn’s Symphony in B-flat Major, no. 98. Notational Conventions versus Face Value Interpretation The Baroque convention of notating triplet rhythms as dotted figures (J.S.Bach: Partita no. 1, Corrente) was adopted by Mozart (Concerto in B-flat Major, K. 450 I: 56), Franz Schubert (Klavierstück in E-flat Minor, D. 946 no. 1, second episode—see Wiener Urtext, preface by Paul Badura-Skoda), FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN (Prelude op. 28, no. 9, autograph manuscript), ROBERT SCHUMANN (Romanze op. 32, no. 3, and Phantasiestück op. 111, no. 2, Peters Edition, Adolf Ruthardt editor), Aram Ilich Khachaturyan (Trio in G Minor for Clarinet, Violin and Piano, last movement), and so on. In uncorrupted sources, vertical alignments should indicate rhythmic execution. Ambiguity arises because of the composer’s occasional misalignment, or the engraver’s unawareness of this notational convention. Given the occasional persistence of Baroque notational conventions in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it is possible that Schumann might have intended that the dotted rhythms of his Kinderszenen op. 15, no. 1, be played in continuous triplets (see the alignment in the composer’s autograph manuscripts). Similarly, Sergei Prokofiev’s time signature in his Piano Sonata in A Minor op. 28 might imply the same performance practice as J.S.Bach’s time signature (alla breve= ) in his Prelude in D Major from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier, volume 2. The concept of pulse as opposed to meter has far-reaching consequences for performance. In much ofJ. S. Bach’s music, the “C” time signature implies two pulses per measure (as opposed to its later meaning of four beats per measure). In this sense, the Fugue in C Minor from Bach’s Das Wohltemperierte Klavier, volume, I, should be felt as having two (not four) pulses per measure (in the same sense that the Prelude in C Major from the same volume contains only two pulses per measure). Awareness of the distinction between pulse and beat affects not only the phrasing but also the tempo. For example, the above-mentioned fugue will most likely be played faster when felt in two pulses per measure. Most important, awareness

of the half-measure units clarifies the work’s structure, since the motivic, rhythmic, and harmonic units consistently coincide with the half-measure concept of the piece. In Beethoven’s Sonata in E Major op. 109, the basic triple pulse established at the beginning of the last movement’s Variation no. 6 should be retained throughout the remainder of the piece regardless of the notated changes in time signature (from ¾ to and back to 3/4). Perhaps unaware of this notational convention, or possibly in spite of it, Artur Schnabel insists in his edition of this sonata that one must retain the face value of the eighth-note rather than the time value of the opening pulse. This theory results in a rhythmic conversion within the same piece that is unknown in the Classical era: the transition from ¾ to proposed by Schnabel entails the switch from a beat equaling a quarter-note to one equaling a dotted quarternote, where the time value of the dotted quarter is longer by one eighth-note than the previous beat. Curiously, when faced with the changes in time signature of the variation movement of Beethoven’s Sonata in C Minor op. 111, Schnabel admits that his theory cannot be applied there because his conversion ratio between variations would yield an unplayable tempo. Notation versus Perception Neither Urtext editions nor the mere use of period instruments can reveal the inner life of music as perceived by the composer. To regain that perception, a working knowledge of compositional techniques is required. Most composers unify single and multimovement works by deriving their motives from the opening measures (Arnold Schoenberg’s twelve-tone row is a modern adaptation of this timeless principle). For example, all movements of Beethoven’s “Waldstein” Sonata in C Major op. 53 begin with a single pitch in low register followed by at least two repeated notes in higher register. Known as the il filo principle (the thread that unites single movements and larger works into an organic unity), these relationships can best be discovered by retracing the music from the end to its beginning. This yields the musical “genes” out of which whole compositions blossom forth as though improvised. However, the “genes” often elude the eye, as in Mozart’s Fantasia in C Minor, K. 475. To reveal the voice leading of its opening, the notes must be redistributed between the two hands, and rebeamed as in Fig. 54, where Mozart’s implicit notation is substituted with its explicit meaning. The true voice leading of this opening is very difficult to guess from the implicit notation, yet even its explicit version poses one of the most difficult problems of TOUCH differentiation in keyboard literature. The complexity of the voice leading is a result of the composer’s orchestral concept, and this is equally difficult to realize on both period and modern instruments. Nevertheless, it is the performer’s duty to examine the author’s compositional style in order to discover these sometimes elusive motivic “threads” and to attempt to approximate their orchestral effect on the piano or FORTEPIANO. Original versus Modern Instruments If authenticity in performance means “to approximate the composer’s intentions as an act of truth and fidelity” (Newman), then the realization of this ideal requires at times “to strip away the accretions and the traditions of the past (including those accepted by the composer himself)” (Rosen). Some effects intended by the composer can only be achieved on modern instruments. For example, the subito fortissimo climax in Felix Mendelssohn’s Rondo Capriccioso (Henle Urtext) requires that the left hand play an octave on the downbeat of measure 227; yet this octave was unavailable on Mendelssohn’s own fortepiano, and has become available only on the later fortepianos and the modern pianos. Another example is FRANZ LISZT’S Sonata in B Minor, which seems to end on a short note in low register. It has been suggested, however, that Liszt may have intended an orchestral effect—the prolongation of the B-major tonic that would thus end the piece in high rather than in low register. This orchestral effect became possible on the piano only later, with the adoption of the improved STEINWAY SOSTENUTO mechanism of 1876. There are but few pieces in piano literature that do require the instrument for which they were written (for example, Béla Bartók’s Rhapsody op. 1, for piano and orchestra, written for the seven and one-half-octave range of modern BÖSEN-DORFERS that is unavailable on modern Steinways). Yet composers did not encourage dogmatic attitudes toward the ranges and the sounds of various instruments. The autograph of Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto contains two versions of the keyboard part that accommodate the ranges of fortepianos popular in his day. This cavalier attitude toward the medium of performance is evident in the widespread use of the generic term cembalo that designates an infinite variety of ranges and sounds of both harpsichords and fortepianos from 1700
277
to well into the first half of the nineteenth century. For example, Beethoven still uses this term on twelve occasions in the fullscore autograph of the “Emperor” Concerto (1809), where it designates any fortepiano of any range or sound available at the time of the performance. Beethoven did entertain the idea of recomposing his earlier keyboard works in order to eliminate the compromises made to accommodate the limited range of the early fortepianos; unfortunately, he “never quite realized that new edition” (Newman). Even BRAHMS’S love for STREICHER pianos did not prevent him from using a host of other pianos during his concert tours, including two Steinways and one KNABE. A noteworthy ideal of the great pianists of the golden age of piano playing (the Romantic tradition) has always been to transcend the sound of the piano per se: “when he [Liszt] played, the instrument did not sound like a piano…it was an unspeakable sound, which I, now after twenty-seven years, still hear clearly” (Leyetchkiss). Though “authentic” instruments have become “a kind of religion” (Towe), “the spurious notion that interpretations on period instruments are intrinsically more novel or persuasive than those on modern instruments needs to be abandoned” (Winter). Unfortunately, many present-day pianists are ignorant of certain PEDAL effects that prompted Anton Rubinstein to declare that “the pedal is the soul of the piano.” Understandably, present-day fortepianists wage campaigns aimed at exposing the alleged limitations of the modern piano. Such limitations are, however, not inherent in the construction of the modern GRAND. Contrary to popular opinion, it is indeed possible to produce on the modern piano any gradual or sudden diminuendo effect on a single note or chord. For example, the forte piano (fp) effect on the first chord of Beethoven’s “Pathétique” Sonata in C Minor op. 13 can be achieved as follows: first, the right (DAMPER) pedal is depressed prior to attacking the first chord; then the first chord in played as loudly as is needed to approximate the sound of a full orchestra. While the pedal is held fully depressed, the fingers are completely released. As soon as diminuendo is desired, the depressed pedal is gradually released until the dampers begin to touch the STRINGS—thus gradually eliminating the rich overtones while reducing the dynamic level. The rate of diminuendo is determined by the speed with which the damper pedal is released. When the leftover vibration in the strings is reduced to the desired piano effect, the pedal is released no farther, and the performer proceeds to play the piano chords in the normal manner. Due to the modern grand’s greater contrast between forte and piano, the implied effect of a full orchestral diminuendo is more successfully approximated on the modern grand than on the fortepiano. More important, this case demonstrates that a knowledgeable performer using the modern grand does not accept passively the rate of sound decay of the instrument but actively manipulates it. Due to the rich overtones of the modern grand, it is even possible to approximate a crescendo effect on a single chord by gradually depressing the pedal after the chord is struck. Nevertheless, “you have to pay for everything that you gain with a corresponding loss” (Towe), and some effects easily attainable on the fortepiano are next to impossible on the modern grand. By challenging performers on modern instruments, the historical performance movement has inspired effects that were considered to be impossible on the modern grand. For example, by insisting that “the soloist in a Mozart piano concerto must be involved in the sound of the tuttis” Nikolaus Harnoncourt has challenged modern pianists to discover the technical and musical means that would enable them to perform continuo “so that it didn’t sound like Rachmaninoff, and so that the piano is still there in the tuttis” (Towe). Recent reviews that exalt the sound of the modern grand functioning in the dual role of continuo and solo instrument prove not only the little explored possibilities of modern instruments but demonstrate also the fructifying effect of the historical performance challenge. Live versus Recorded Performances “Music recorded by machines hardens into something stationary,” that is, deprived of the very life of music—its “variability”; “if mechanical music were to flood the world to the detriment of live music,” then it would “develop into a calamity equivalent to the seven Egyptian plagues” (Bartók). It is sign of the times that, thirty years after Bartók’s plea that recordings be used only for pedagogic or scientific purposes, Glenn Gould saluted the “time-transcending luxuries of recording” (i.e., splicing) while predicting the disappearance of public concerts in the twenty-first century. Ideally, mechanical or electrical recording devices “offer the possibility for the composer to pass on to the world… minute nuances which cannot be expressed notationally” (Bartók). By converting recorded performances into scores that translate the relative durations of notes into proportionally longer or shorter bars (i.e., time equals space), László Somfai has pioneered a method of translating the aural experience into a visual one. His studies of Bartók’s own performances of “Evening in Transylvania” (from Ten Easy Piano Pieces) has shown that the four recordings (including two on piano rolls) and the two distinct editions of this piece yield six variants with individual traits. Nevertheless, certain basic characteristics of Bartók’s parlando rubato rubat remain relatively constant over a period of several decades. But the attempt to single out one “ideal” performance is a futile effort for, as Bartók put it, “it would not be advisable to listen to these compositions perpet ually like that [i.e., played by the composer]…because it would cover the composition with boredom … The best imaginable phonography, therefore, will never be able to act as a substitute for completely live music… Mechanical music is a manufacturing industry; live music is an individual handicraft.”

Conclusion Recent studies have shown that the cultural environment of bygone ages was less concerned with sharply defined concepts and practices than our own. In previous cultures, the concepts of consistency and standardization as we apply them today were the exception rather than the rule. This explains the great variety of approaches to notation, instrument building, and performance that have flourished concomitantly in the past. If the historical performance movement will resist the temptation to reduce performance practice and instrument building to a set of externally applied rules and regulations, it can bring about a renaissance of our own musical life. Perhaps the most pressing challenge facing today’s historical performance movement is to find the ways and means of resurrecting a perception of musical practice that was paramount in the consciousness of bygone ages: the perception of the spiritual aspect of music making. In an age in which tendencies towards consumerism threaten to reduce music to a commodity aimed at providing sensual entertainment, the performance-practice movement may play an important role in regaining the perception of the “inner nature of music” (Steiner).

PERIODICALS Considering the pervasiveness of the pianoforte in the concert life of the past two hundred years, and the fascination that the instrument has maintained among composers, it is curious to find what a small place it has made in the journal literature. Of more than five thousand musical periodicals listed in a most recent inventory (Fellinger, 1980) only seventy-five titles include the word “piano” or any of its translations. (A few more began publishing after 1980.) Furthermore, many of those journals had the briefest of lives, and several others require the piano to share space with other keyboard instruments. BARTOLOMEO CRISTOFORI’S invention did receive early notice in periodicals of the time; indeed the first musical periodical of them all—Critica musica, edited by Johann Mattheson (Hamburg, 1722/23–1725)—printed a translation of SCIPIONE MAFFEI’S premier account. This had first appeared in the Giornale de’ letterati d’Italia in 1711, as “Nuova inventione d’un Gravecembalo col piano e forte” Although made known in Italy and Germany while the inventor was still building his instruments, the pianoforte did not gain quick acceptance. It was mid-century before the musical values of the instrument were established (assisted by the approval of JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH, CARL PHILIPP EMANUEL BACH, and Johann Joachim Quantz) and a distinct repertoire began to be composed. Finally in the 1760s there were public concerts, and piano building began to be a significant industry. Yet in the eighteenth century there was sparse writing about the new musical voice. After the appearance of the Maffei article the next study in a periodical seems to have been by Niels Brelin in the 1739 year-book of the Swedish Research Academy. This piece, suggesting improvements to the piano mechanism, was translated into German and published in the second volume of Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg’s journal Historisch-kristische Beyträge zur Aufnahme der Musik (Berlin, 1754/ 55–1760/78). Brelin wrote some further essays, in the 1757 and 1760 yearbooks, but they remained in Swedish only. Anyone who cares to scan the contents of the principal eighteenth-century musical periodicals may find the task less forbidding than it sounds, since one fine scholar, Johann Forkel, has compiled a good journal-by-journal summary (Forkel,
