A table piano from 1778 undergoes restoration
The nearly 250-year-old table piano at Gathenhielmska Huset in Gothenburg is to be restored as part of REM@KE and made playable once again. Built in London in 1778, the instrument is believed to be the oldest piano in Sweden.
“It’s like having a conversation with an elderly friend: a little quiet, a little old-fashioned, but full of wisdom,” said Joel Speerstra about Sweden’s oldest piano.
