Dr. Indrek Laul
Dr. Laul
Growing up in the country of Estonia gave him a love for the instrument most used behind the iron curtain, the Estonia Piano. This love combined with his love of piano performance in general led him to purchase this company, and with time, totally change the way the instrument is made, which led to many world class musicians choosing it. Here in Philadelphia, this piano was chosen by
WRTI, Philadelphia's classical and jazz station, for their performance space, as well as many schools and professionals, including super piano virtuoso
Marc-Andre Hamelin.
In recognition for his accomplishments Dr. Laul was recently awarded his country's Medal of Honor and Glory.
Within the world of piano performance these instruments are held in the highest regard world wide and the people of Estonia consider this instrument a national treasure.
