Knabe & Company began manufacturing pianos in Baltimore, MD in 1839. His establishment grew until in 1908 it merged with Chickering and Foster Armstrong, two other large piano makers at the time. The Knabe company won many awards for their square grands and prided themselves in their high standards and handcrafted pianos. In 1932 Knabe once again merged with the Aeolian piano company, who continued to make the piano until 1981. Today the the piano is a subsidiary of the Samick Music Corporation, who continue to produce pianos under the Knabe name.
