Makers of the Piano: Volume 2: 1820-1860

By Martha Novak Clinkscale

This book continues the overview of early pianos begun in Clinkscale's Makers of the Piano 1700-1820 (OUP, 1993). Although a few of the biographies overlap, the majority of the makers are completely new. Approximately 2,400 makers and manufacturers and about 2,200 pianos are listed. Of this
total, about 645 are English, the majority of whom were active in London; more than 200 of the London makers have not been discussed in previous publications.
