description: "Paul McNulty is a builder of historical pianos, described by the New Grove as \"famous for the high standard of [his] instruments.\" Within the community of builders, McNulty is noted for his efforts to extend the production of historically informed instruments later into history: while he has built many fortepianos in 18th-century style, he has also progressively sought to span the gap between the fortepiano and the fully modern piano that emerged around the last third of the 19th century. The expanding diversity of McNulty's productions has thus helped \"provide an opportunity to extend keyboard performing practice to include the piano repertory of the 19th century\"."
