Why does a 97 / 92 key piano exist by Bosendorfer?
Pianos normally have 88 keys, ranging from A0 to C8. One of Bosendorfer's pianos go down to F below the low A. The other model goes down to C. How did this happen?

These extended Bösendorfer ranges go back to Busoni's day. He wanted to match the range of pipe organs, as he was making transcriptions of J. S. Bach's organ works at the time.
