Steinway & Sons unveils John Lennon Imagine Series Limited Edition piano
Steinway & Sons has now announced the new Imagine Series Limited Edition piano to celebrate the 70th birthday of the legendary musician and songwriter John Lennon. Modeled after the white Steinway grand piano that John Lennon presented to Yoko Ono on her birthday in 1971, the Imagine Series Limited Edition piano incorporates John's signature, music and a medallion expressing its individuality. The lyrics YOU MAY SAY I'M A DREAMER have been shown gracefully on the bass side of the rim. The music desk of each piano features one of four different and famous John Lennon original drawings.
Come Together is the title of the opening track on the Beatles' historic album Abbey Road and reflects the musician's desire to bring people together. Grand Piano is a drawing that captures the songwriting process. Freda People illustrates John Lennon's passion for using music for the benefit of mankind. Self Portrait is perhaps John Lennon's most famous drawing.
Ron Losby, President, Steinway & Sons – Americas, said…
I am very excited about the launch of this truly unique piano. John Lennon was a visionary in so many ways. It is an honor for Steinway & Sons to have been chosen by Mrs. Lennon to create this remarkable piano.
The Imagine Series is available only through Steinway's factory-owned retail showrooms and the exclusive Steinway dealers. A portion of the proceeds from the sale will benefit The John Lennon Educational Tour Bus.
