Both Paris and London factories of the Erard company were producing large numbers of fortepianos equipped with his patented technologies throughout the mid-19th century, and in a sense, all modern grand pianos are descended from the \u201cEarad\u201d Grand Fortepiano.<\/p>\n<p>However, in the late 19th century, after Steinway and other German makers rose to prominence with new technical innovations such as cross-stringing and cast-metal frames, production at Erard declined to the point where its London factory closed in 1890.<\/p>\n<p>Min-On\u2019s &#8220;Erard\u201d Concert Grand Fortepiano was known as \u201cThe Lady of Pianos\u201d on account of its white exterior. The exquisite carvings on the legs and case suggest the style of Louis XIV, typical of the Palace of Versailles.<\/p>\n<p>This beautiful Erard piano was manufactured in the company&#8217;s Paris factory in 1899 when the company itself was in decline. It is a very rare piece because a part of its frame was of cast metal instead of the more typical timber frames of Erard pianos.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1899, in Paris, France play pause stop mute unmute max  [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":908,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"distributor_meta":false,"distributor_terms":false,"distributor_media":false,"distributor_original_site_name":"Chinese Simplified - Min-On Website","distributor_original_site_url":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.min-on.org\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
