Review of a piano concert
By the way, this is a translation from a French review (which I don´t have access to at the moment) and I think the 'en' in the sentence should be a 'y'.
[…] Un curriculum mencionando “Festival de la Roque d’Anthéron”, además en la corte de los grandes, el Parque de Florans, es una puerta para el futuro, un paso de gigante para **ir recorriendo el mundo de Steinway en Bechstein.**

travel around the world from Steinway(s) to Bechstein(s)
Creo que el autor del texto quiso decir 'ir recorriendo el mundo de piano en piano'.
Sólo que aquí intervienen las marcas, y se trata de ir 'de piano (S.) en piano (B.)'.
O yendo de un piano a otro: 'de un Steinway a un Bechstein' (y viceversa).
Esa construcción se traduce al inglés como 'from... to...'
Ref.: Gran Diccionario Oxford español-inglés.
NOTA: se olvidaron del Yamaha...

: This is one possible answer, but I wouldn't say "piano brands". I think you can take it for granted that anyone reading this article will know what Steinway and Bechstein are.

Hi Phil, yes, it depends on the audience. Maybe it was not necessary to explain.

[see below]
es una puerta para el futuro, un paso de gigante para ir recorriendo el mundo de Steinway en Bechstein.
=
opens up [tremendous] future possibilities, and affords a wonderful entrée into the world of Steinways and Bechsteins.
Comment:
The Spanish seems barely coherent, but this seems to me to be the intended sense of the language.
entrée: privilege or right of admission (Shorter Oxford English Dictionary)
Or perhaps: "is an indication of an entrée into....." [unclear as to whether the language refers to an event that has already occurred or one whose occurrence is desired]
Suerte.

exploring the world with Steinway and Bechstein
This is about life as a touring musician and performing on these brands. The world *of* S and B sounds to me more like selling pianos or servicing them.
