Theodore August Heintzman is the founder of Canada’s most famous and celebrated piano company: Heintzman & Company. After emigrating to New York from Berlin in 1850, he eventually found his way to Toronto, where he founded his piano firm in 1866. As a result of the company’s high-quality craftsmanship and consistency, Heintzman’s reputation grew, which eventually led to them being called the “Steinway of the North”. While Canadian manufacturing ceased in the 1980s, the Heintzman name was later resurrected by investors and manufacturing was moved to China.
