The company PETROF helped promoting this event mainly on social media websites. Thus increasing the interest of other media and the interest of people of all age groups. During this event, a 6-year-old pianist and a 68-year-old lady have both, for example, played the Mistral piano. Some participants have in fact traveled across the country to be a part of this successful attempt to break the record.
We were especially thrilled to hear the kind words of the Jičín piano marathon’s main organizer, Mrs. Katarína Kalvodová, that addressed the previously mentioned piano: “It is a magnificent instrument, it played brilliantly until the end. The event was organized because of it.”
After successfully beating the Czech record, the musicians of Jičín are now confident that they can conquer the world record. 125 hours of continuous playing are needed to beat the current world record. We wish them and the Mistral piano the best of luck in this endeavour.
