Master craftsman Peter Veletzky
Peter Veletzky stands at the top of Wendl & Lung with its distinguishing features of tradition and quality.
Mr. Veletzky was born in 1960 in Vienna into the 4th generation of Wendl & Lung owners. From childhood on, he has worked in the family-owned piano company.
His grandmother, one of the first female piano builders of the 20th century, and his father, provided education in all areas of piano building. At age 22, he became Austria’s youngest piano master builder. He took over the family-owned company in 1994.
Peter Veletzky is driven by his passion to construct only newly designed piano models. His enormous general knowledge and experience has come about through his detailed study of the construction and building of various world-wide piano brands. In 2002 he has been sworn in as a legal piano expert.
Based on his experiences, which he gathered in innumerable repairs of antique instruments, Mr. Veletzky knows exactly where to pay attention on the new construction and assembling of pianos, in order to avoid eventual problems in the future.
