Although it has frequently appeared in masterclasses and concerts all over Australia for local and overseas artists, our Stein fortepiano is most regularly heard from the orchestra pit for Opera Australia’s Sydney and Melbourne productions of Mozart, Rossini and Donizetti operas. The Fortepiano flew to Beijing for the first fortepiano concerts in China with Florilegium, has toured around Australia twice for Richard Egarr playing concertos with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, and in 2019 was even heard in Bahrain with Freiburger Barockorchester performing Mozart’s Don Giovanni directed by René Jacobs.
