Playing Peter Reinerts Janko piano

Hi, my name is Rico.
I explore, build and play
Jankó pianos.

The Jankó piano design was invented by Paul von Jankó in the late 19th century. It has the very convenient property that it is isomorphic.

 

Thus, scale fingerings and chord shapes are the same in all keys.

You can't really buy Jankó pianos which led me to developing, building, and experimenting with Jankó pianos myself.

 

My wish is that everyone interested in this piano layout has the possibility to get one and learn how to play it.
