Lennon Piano Reimagined Steinway has paid tribute to John Lennon’s 70th birthday with the introduction of its Imagine Series Limited Edition piano. The instrument is modeled after the white Steinway grand that Lennon presented to his wife, Yoko Ono, on her birthday in 1971. The bass side of the inner rim features a portion of the lyrics from the song “Imagine.” The cast-iron plate inside the piano has the song’s opening bars, and the music desk of each piano boasts one of four different Lennon drawings. The Imagine series is available in Model M, O, A, B and D grand piano sizes.
