Steinway is interesting - the company was founded in the USA by Heinrich Steinweg - a german immigrant that previously founded another piano company in his home region that also still exists today: Grotrian-Steinweg Pianofortefabrik in Braunschweig, Germany. I live in Braunschweig and a friend of mine worked in the company as an engineer for a few years.
