The Oldest Piano Shop In Paris

The Fournitures Generales Pour Le Piano is a small shop on the streets of Paris that sells parts to repair pianos, a dwindling market if there ever was one.

The Fournitures Generales Pour Le Piano is a small shop on the streets of Paris that sells parts to repair pianos, a dwindling market if there ever was one. Marc Manceaux, the shop's owner, is forced to destroy old pianos in order to salvage their parts, leaving the back of his store positively filled with spare keyboards, hammers and strings of all shapes and sizes, and a load of just about everything else. He figures that he has about 8 years left before he has to close the shop, but maybe then he'll be able to build the unique instrument he can't stop dreaming about.
