  • Square pianoforte (1804-1813) by Andrew Rochead [Musical Instrument Museum Edinburgh. Accession Number 4325]. St Cecilia's Hall Concert Room & Music Museum / University of Edinburgh..
    "​Scottish piano makers followed the fashions of London, both in the design of their instruments and in opening showrooms to entice potential clientele. Rochead was no different. His pianos closely followed designs patented by Broadwood and Sons, so much so that his pianos may have incorporated parts that were supplied by the London firm. Rochead started his business in Edinburgh’s Old Town. He later moved to the more fashionable New Town, eventually opening a showroom on Princes Street.",
