"Oscar Peterson plays a Bösendorfer, not a Baldwin. He's featured in their 
advertising."
My ex wife worked for Baldwin in Chicago in the early 70's.....At that time 
Peterson was a "Baldwin Artist" He stopped in the store every time he passed 
through town. Ferrante & Teicher, and George Shearing were also Baldwin 
people at the time. I can't imagine Glen Gould giving up his Steinway for a 
Yamaha....a very inferior instrument...
