Due to the economic situation the new manager was faced with difficulties concerning the production as well as the sales of pianos. Īn outstanding technical innovation was the development of a self-playing piano, called Ducanola in around 1915.Īt the age of 73, Wilhelm Schimmel passed the company's management to his son, Wilhelm Arno Schimmel. Īt the World Exhibition in 19, the instruments received first gold medals. Schimmel received the title of purveyor of the Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach and the purveyor of the King of Romania. Schimmel Pianos soon developed an international reputation as their instruments were exported to Russia, Italy, France, the U.S., Switzerland, and many other countries. Due to the outstanding playability, the highly developed mechanics and the tonal quality the brand Schimmel soon belonged to the circle of renown pianoforte factories in Leipzig, which used to be, besides Berlin the centre of piano manufacturers in Germany. In 1897, Wilhelm Schimmel built his own state-of-the-art factory in Leipzig-Stötteritz on 4000 m 2 large grounds. The company had moved to bigger workshops due to the increasing production. In May 1894, Wilhelm Schimmel produced his 1000th instrument.
