Revision as of 04:54, 12 August 2005 by 67.169.109.253 (talk)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Is Steinway the name of a place? The article seems to suggest that, but it's hard to tell. Is it is a place name, then where is it? I would have expected this article to be about the piano makers, but I suppose that might live at Steinway Company or something if this is indeed a place. I keep meaning to expand the piano related entries, not got round to it yet. --Camembert
