7/3/2023 0 Comments Wilhelm schimmel piano price![]() RS: Schimmel was founded by Wilhelm Schimmel (OBM) in 1885. ![]() PP: Please, tell us about the Schimmel Piano makers and what makes the company different from others. (By the way, I did finish my piano degree!) I became involved as a manufacturer’s representative and have been with Schimmel for 16 years, now as their North American vice president and director of marketing and sales. When our lease expired we didn’t renew but went on to other careers. I ended up taking a full-time position in piano sales and a few years later opened my own piano store with two partners. ![]() While I was a student, I stopped by a piano store one day to inquire about part time work to help pay my ay through school. ![]() I entered college a couple years later as a piano student but had a lot of catching up to do. RS: I was a late bloomer as a pianist, buying my first piano and taking my first lessons at age 19. PP: Dear Robert, can you, please, tell our readers a little bit about yourself? How did you get into piano distribution? Do you have a background in piano performance? I got in touch with Robert Slayman (may G-d bless him), the VP of Schimmel Pianos in North America who told me the Schimmel story and the company behind it. Its futuristic design as well as its sound made me want to find one and play it. Browsing the Internet for interesting piano photos, I stumbled upon Schimmel Pegasus, which left me speechless and star-struck.
