built and presented to
President Franklin Roosevelt
in 1938 to commemorate the
production of Steinway’s
300,000th piano.
The new piano, designed by
New York architect Eric Gugler,
was more than nine feet long,
with a case of Honduran mahogany
and gold leaf by artist Dunbar Beck.
Last renovated in 1992 during
the administration of George
H. W. Bush, the piano remains
today in the East Room of
the White House.
Regina was given a privilege
to perform on this piano
a Christmas recital
on December 22, 2010.
