EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1927, showcases the sleek and modern Ampico piano, showcased in the window of Regent House on Regent Street in London. The Ampico piano, also known as the Supreme Re-enacting Piano, was a groundbreaking musical instrument of its time. Unlike traditional pianos, the Ampico piano utilized a system of pneumatic cylinders and felt hammers to reproduce the sound of real piano keys being struck, providing an authentic piano performance without the need for a live performer. The Ampico piano's innovative design is evident in this image, with its grand size, polished ebony finish, and ornate gold detailing. The piano stool and table, also featured in the photograph, add to the elegant and sophisticated atmosphere. The presence of a motor car in the background, parked on the busy Regent Street, serves as a reminder of the early 20th century's fascination with both music and automobiles. The 1920s, also known as the Jazz Age, were a time of great cultural and technological change. The Ampico piano, with its ability to replicate the sound of a live performance, represented the intersection of music and technology during this era. This photograph, taken by Terry Parker, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and innovation of this remarkable musical instrument.
