The Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand piano - rare in the world

One of the world's largest grand pianos stands in the Edesche Concert Hall: the Bösendorfer Imperial 290. This grand piano, extended to eight octaves, is 2.90 metres long, and partly because of this gives a magnificent sound. In the Netherlands this concert grand piano can only be found in the Edesche Concert Hall.

Travel with Franz Liszt to the picturesque Swiss Alps. Liszt recorded his many travel impressions in the impressive series of piano pieces 'Années de pèlerinage' (Pilgrim Years). A better guide in this music than pianist Louis Lortie is hardly conceivable. New Yorker Magazine rated Lortie's CD recording of Liszt's masterpiece as "best recording of 2012". NRC Handelsblad goes even further: "Louis Lortie is a master pianist pur sang in the best romantic tradition"
