What about Nixon? Regardless of what one thinks of his personal integrity and such, IIRC he was the best pianist among recent presidents. I bet he played a Steinway grand.BosseJo wrote:
Do you know what brand of personal pianos the Us presidents had during their term? Clinton had a Baldwin Grand and so did Taft. Gerald Ford and G.Bush senior had none. The other Bush is not listed.

I've seen the Roosevelt White House piano at the Smithsonian. Huge, gawdy, gilt Steinway. Steinway & Sons' 100,000th instrument. Legs are carved with huge spread eagle wings, it has state seals from the original 13, and inside the lid is a painting of "nine muses."
Ugly, ugly thing. I imagine it played nicely.
Want to hear Richard Nixon play piano?
