Irmler (Leipzig) 1823
This lovely piano from his collection is offered for sale by the well-known musician Anders Muskins. He writes:
Table piano by Johann Christian Gottlieb Irmler in
Leipzig year 1823.
With Viennese mechanics, 6 octaves FF-f''''.
Two pedals: damper lifter and moderator (moderator is not fully functional)
Anders confirms that, as we would expect with a German piano of this date, that the keys are bone, not ivory. A welcome simplification from the CITES point of view!
Mahogany veneer, has some scuffs and scratches from age.
Restored and functional, although more regulation would be a good idea. Beautiful sound. For more information, recordings
and videos, please contact Anders Muskens amuskens@icloud.com
Price: €5000 EUR, negotiable. Located south of Stuttgart
12/23
