Here are some of the most amazing custom-made #pianos by Fazioli. My absolute favorite – on my ideal wish list of course… – is the Marco Polo, a red F308 celebrating the ties of Venice and China, or nearby Sacile and the Chinese commissioning client, by its reference to the Venetian explorer who opened the silk route, and the reproduction of a Canaletto canvas inside the lid.   What is truly remarkable about the Fazioli approach to manufacture is not only the founder’s idea of the #piano as an object of technical and aesthetic evolution, but also the company’s philosophy: to produce individual, high achieving pianos for performers, endowed with a unique personality and sound. Rejecting any logic of industrial serialization, the 55 employees of Fazioli produce 150 pianos per year (each piano takes 2 years to complete) and 95% of them are sold outside Italy.   Here is the story of the Italian Ferrari of pianos!

Circus Maximus in Rome, Italy is a historic Roman stadium used for chariot racing and other entertainment. It was the earliest and biggest stadium in ancient Rome and the later Roman Empire, located in the valley between the Aventine and Palatine hills. It could hold more than 150,000 spectators and was 621 meters long and 118 meters wide. When it was completed, it served as the template for circuses all around the Roman Empire. It is currently a public park. Circus Maximus served as the main location for ludi, or public sports related to religious festivals, in the city. For the good of the Roman people and Gods, ludi were supported by powerful Romans or the Roman government.

Evergreen Marine Corporation (EMC) celebrated the maiden voyage of Ever Max, its first 15,000 TEU class M-type containership, on the Asia-U.S. East Coast service on June 26, 2023. To commemorate this historic event, EMC produced a special video featuring footage of the maiden voyage set to the first movement of Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, performed by the Evergreen Symphony Orchestra. Described by Wagner as the “Apotheosis of the Dance”, this classical masterpiece, combined with the green ship concept embodied in Ever Max, exemplifies the spirit of “dancing with nature” while expressing reverence for the environment and the ocean’s ecology. In contrast to the five-minute version, this video employs a distinctive visual style by adopting a linear documentary approach featuring mirror-symmetrical imagery. Adhering to the most recent international environmental standards, Ever Max not only integrates a design aimed at reducing carbon emissions but also includes state-of-the-art eco-friendly equipment. In doing so, it contributes to endeavors aimed at safeguarding our planet's ecosystems through the principles of sustainability. #EVERMAX#長榮海運#EVERGREEN#長榮#長極輪#M型船#MTYPE#環保船#greenship
