Description
This book is a collection of the artwork that architect and artist John Diebboll has been creating for a modern generation of art-case pianos. Continuing the nineteenth-century tradition of one-of-a-kind comissioned constructions that are to be seen as well as played, his drawings present his visions of twenty-first century pianos.
