Heintzman Piano History
The Heintzman company was established in 1866 in Toronto, CA by Theodore Heinztman, a German immigrant. The founder died in 1899, but the company continued to produce pianos through 1978, when they were bought by a furniture making company. At this time, uprights were mainly produced in Hanover, Ontario. By the late 1980's, the Heintzman pianos were also being produced by the US piano companies Kimball and Wurlitzer, among others. In 1989 the company name and all the piano designs were purchased by a Chinese firm and are now being produced in Beijing.
