Reuge collection - The Soprano

Under consideration for retirement by Reuge. Our advise: Don't hesitate much longer.

Fine Italian Marquetry of Musical Instruments adorns the lid of this Reuge "Soprano" that boasts a glorious cabinet of "Loupe d'Amboine" (a magnificent burled wood).  It will thrill all who love music as well as those who appreciate fine and rare woods. 
 
For this particular musical masterpiece , we have chosen two sets of melodies for the Sopranos we have in stock. Either of these 72 note mechanisms that will delight you with their sophisticated choices of music:  One  features three of the most beloved waltzes of Dimitri Shostakovitch, "The Lyric Waltz" from his "Dance of the Dolls," "Waltz No. 1" from his "Jazz Suite No. 1" and "Waltz No. 2" from the "Jazz Suite No. 2." 

The other features three compositions of famous women composers - September Am Flusse by Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (sister of Felix), Piano Concerto in Am no. 7 - Allegro non Troppo by Clara Wieck Schumann ( wife of Robert), and In Meines Vaters Garten by Alma Schindler Mahler (wife of Gustav). 

Clara Schumann has been called "The Power Woman of Classical Music."  This mechanism reflects the "Power of Women" in classical music, as it includes Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel and Alma Schindler Mahler
