German Grand Pianos and Pianists

Germany has always been the land of geniuses; pianists are not an exception. From time to time, great pianists were born in Germany, and took the art of playing piano to a new level. Among all of them, the most notable name is obviously Ludwig van Beethoven- the most renowned composer and pianist of all time. There were many other renowned pianists, like Eugene d'Albert, Fanny Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms, Conrad Ansorge, Christian Zacharias etc. All of them were grandmasters of piano.
To provide these grandmasters with pianos of their choice, excellent pianos were made in Germany. Both grand pianos and upright pianos were made with highest integrity and dedication. Piano makers used the best materials to make the best piano for the best grandmasters. The golden era of German pianists has gone for a long time, though the quality of German pianos has not been compromised yet.
