Historical Significance

Originally purchased in the early 1960s by Don Randi of The Wrecking Crew, the piano was acquired for Tutti Camarata, the visionary owner of Sunset Sound Studios. Initially housed in Tutti's office, the piano was used to compose musical projects for Disney Records. Notable Disney works orchestrated during this period include classics such as:

  • Mary Poppins
  • Bambi
  • Bedknobs & Broomsticks
  • 101 Dalmatians
  • Sleeping Beauty

In 1966, Tutti’s office was transformed into Studio 2, marking the dawn of Sunset Sound's rock n roll era. This piano became integral to countless hits by artists like The Beach Boys, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, and Prince, to name a few.
