John Lennon “Imagine” Series Limited Edition Piano
Long Island City, NY – November 1, 2010 – To commemorate the 70th birthday of a true creative genius—legendary musician and songwriter John Lennon—Steinway & Sons has introduced the Imagine Series Limited Edition piano. The Imagine Series Limited Edition is modeled after the white Steinway grand piano that John Lennon presented to Yoko Ono on her birthday in 1971, which is still at their famous Manhattan residence – the Dakota.
The music desk of each piano incorporates one of four different John Lennon original drawings. Come Together, the title of the opening track on the Beatles’ historic album, “Abbey Road,” reflects John Lennon’s desire to bring people together. Grand Piano is a drawing that captures the songwriting process—as musician and piano become one. Freda People exemplifies John Lennon’s passion for using music for the benefit of mankind. Self Portrait is perhaps John Lennon's most famous drawing—as just a few marks on the page and it’s unmistakably John.
