Ampico

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ampico (short for "American Piano Company") was one of the leading reproducing piano technologies of the early 20th century, the others being Duo-Art and Welte. A number of distinguished classical and popular pianists, such as Rachmaninoff, recorded for Ampico, and their rolls are a legacy of 19th century and early 20th century aesthetic and musical practice.
