My brother Martin Weedon, who has died aged 67 from cancer, was founder of the highly successful Piano Warehouse, providing pianos for musicians and celebrities.
Martin and a colleague, Mike Neill, set up a business together in 1977, starting with secondhand furniture and pianos. This evolved into piano renovation, and then became the Piano Warehouse, based in Surbiton, Surrey. In the 1980s it expanded into importing modern pianos. Over many successful years, the business provided instruments to musicians including Oasis, Coldplay, George Solti and John Ogdon, and other well-known figures, including the broadcaster Jon Snow and film director Sam Mendes.
