Piano Information

Baldwin Pianos

Baldwin began in 1862 in Cincinnati, Ohio and during the next quarter century, became one of the largest piano retailers in the Midwestern United States. It distinguished itself by winning top awards at key expositions. A Baldwin concert piano was honored with the Grand Prix Award at the 1900 International Exhibition in Paris, the first American-made piano to do so. It then took top honors in St. Louis in 1904 and at London's Anglo-American Exposition in 1914. Baldwin helped during WWII by constructing wooden aircraft wings and other aircraft parts. This experience became the basis of their 41-ply maple piano pinblock. Well known Baldwin owners include: Aaron Copeland, Liberace and President Harry Truman.
