History

Created in 1860 by french clarinetist Henrique Luís Levy, Casa Levy de Pianos e Músicas was a music store in São Paulo. In 1891 the house was directed by his two sons, Luiz Levy and Alexandre Levy, and began publishing music by 1890's.

Their stock was sold to Irmãos Vitale in 1974, but remains until today with the same name selling and renting pianos
