@@RichardT9 Not at all, I think it is previous all Steinways, more an advanced forte piano, with kind of a asymetric building to take care of the long strings. Perhaps from 1850- 1880?
On 18th November 1853, with excellent credentials and a budget of “1660 talers, 2 new groschen, 1 penny and 1 farthing”, Julius Blüthner started his pianoforte factory. His instruments were quickly recognised for their outstanding technical and musical qualities and were established in concert halls all over the world. So I can read on Internet, but about this special Grand Piano I have no information.
Compared to a modern Steinway this instrument has a perhaps more "hollow" sound, at least in the lower frequences. But perhaps also a more poetic tone? Yes, it is always nice to compare. The art of buiding pianos is a very fine art.
Mendelssohn was probably, arguably a greater genius than Mozart. Too bad MOST of his music sounds easy on the ear and lacks depth and emotion below its surface sheen and glitter... kind of like John Field's piano music vis-a-vis Chopin.
Sorry, I have it difficult to understand your words. Mozart is a genious, but Mendelssohn is a greater genious. But his music lacks depth and emotion. As I see it, both are easy on the ear. I think both are kind of genious. Best wishes!

The artists deserve special credit for bringing out this rarely performed masterpiece by our beloved Mendelssohn! Bravi!
They have my credit.
beautiful lyrical performance, a superb combination of talents
As always Sol Gabetta: wonderful. And about this unique piano: also wonderful, Bertrand Chamayou.
Do you have any information on this instrument, the fabulous piano? It's sound is definitely different than the usual sound of a Steinway...
@@RichardT9 Very briefly you can just about see on the other video the name of the maker, Bluthner, Leipzig
