New Pianos
FAZIOLI
Fazioli Pianos has been producing grand and concert grand pianos since 1981, when the company was founded by the engineer and pianist Paolo Fazioli. Passion for music, great artisanship, continuous technological research and strict material selection: these are the elements required for building a Fazioli piano. FAZIOLI refuses any industrial approach to manufacturing and pursues the objective of uncompromised quality. The factory is located in Sacile, in the Province of Pordenone (60 km Northeast of Venice) in an area boasting an ancient and prestigious tradition in the art of woodworking.
Fazioli F156 (5’1) Grand

Fazioli F183 (6′) Grand
Baby grand. A mellow, rich and brilliant sound suited for the entire piano repertoire. With a fine balance between the bass and treble, this piano has a projecting tone, which exceeds its dimensions.
Fazioli F198 (6’6) Grand
The newest addition to the FAZIOLI collection. This piano is designed to fit easily into living spaces, home studios, classrooms, and small performance rooms. The powerful and expressive sound, the wide dynamic range, and the balanced and responsive touch across the entire range of the keyboard make it the ideal choice for the most demanding pianists.
Fazioli F212 (7′) Grand
Considered across the world as the classic size for performing and teaching, this piano is also suitable for medium concert halls. The excellent balance between the bass and treble and the wide dynamic range make this instrument particularly well suited for the recording studio.
Fazioli F228 (7’5) Grand
Semi-concert grand piano. Very similar to the concert grand (F278) in its action and dynamic features; a deep and powerful bass makes this piano excellent for medium-size concert halls. Only slightly smaller than a full concert grand, its tonal richness makes it an ideal instrument for chamber music.
Fazioli F278 (9′) Grand
Concert grand. Exceptional power, magnificent balance between the bass and treble, extensive dynamic range and harmonic richness. A classic instrument for large concert halls and recording studios; suitable both for the solo repertoire and for performances with large orchestras.
Bösendorfer
Bösendorfer remains the oldest, premium, piano manufacturer world-wide, residing in the heart of Europe, Austria. Since 1828, Ignaz and Ludwig Bösendorfer poured all their passion and know how towards building the most advanced grand piano of their time that represented Vienna’s culture and appreciation of piano music. Based upon the feedback and influence of world famous composers and leading artists of their times, they elaborated and developed their pianos further. They were a father and son, both not only skilled in the master craftsmanship of piano building but dedicated to music and artists from the start.
Today, it takes up to 587 hours of masterly craftsmanship in Austria to create an instrument, not only aesthetically pleasing but which inspires.
Bösendorfer 185VC (6’1) Grand Piano
The latest Bösendorfer Grand Piano 185, while retaining the wonderful tradition of a brilliant and warm sound, features new and highly precise mechanics that guarantee perfect control and attainment of a huge range of dynamics and colours.
For an instrument of this size, the volume of the bass and the capacity for finest nuances are spectacular.
This piano, on account of its strong and stable mechanics, can be a wonderful practice instrument for the home, but equally a great concert instrument for a small hall.
Let your heart be inspired by this piano.
Bösendorfer 225 (7’4) Grand Piano
This Grand Piano – like the bigger brother 290 Imperial – has been crafted dedicating to the tradition of Viennese piano building. With its unique design and size this piano delights by an exceptional multitude of colours similar to an orchestra.
Delicately fragile pianissimo to brilliant fortissimo, this Bösendorfer Grand sways the audience – down to the Subcontra F. These additional bass notes do not only enrich the tonal volume of the instrument, but subsequently paint additional sound colours and open up an orchestral sound spectrum.
This unique sonic presence in all registers is the sound basis of the popularity of the Bösendorfer 225 as chamber and solo instrument. A presence which leaves no audience unmoved.

Grotrian
Friedrich Grotrian was born in 1803 in Schöningen, Germany, and as a young man lived in Moscow, where he ran a music business and was associated with piano manufacturing. Later in life, he partnered with C.F. Theodor Steinweg, son of Heinrich Steinweg, to build pianos. Heinrich emigrated to the U.S. about 1850, soon to establish the firm of Steinway & Sons. Theodor followed in 1865, selling his share in the partnership to Wilhelm Grotrian, son of Friedrich, who died in 1860. Thereafter, the firm became known as Grotrian-Steinweg. (In a legal settlement with Steinway & Sons, Grotrian-Steinweg agreed to use only the name Grotrian on pianos sold in North America.) Even as early as the 1860s, Grotrian pianos were well known and highly respected throughout Europe. Each successive generation of the Grotrian family maintained the company’s high standards and furthered the technical development of the instrument. Today, a member of the sixth generation of the Grotrian family is a shareholder, and will continue to participate in managing the company, making Grotrian the oldest, family-run piano company in existence.
Grotrian Pianos concentrate on the handmade production of instruments made of fine materials, exclusively in the parent plant in Braunschweig, Germany. Grotrian pianos boast the BVK, Made in Germany Certification, adhering to strict guidelines.

Yamaha ‘AvantGrand’ Hybrid Pianos
Yamaha ‘AvantGrand’ NU1X-A Hybrid Upright
NATURAL TOUCH WITH ACOUSTIC PIANO ACTION.
The NU1X-A utilizes a complex and elaborate upright piano action mechanism that transmits the delicate movements of the keys to the hammer. It responds accurately to the subtlest nuances and expressive intentions of the player, including delicate performance techniques such as trills and continuously repeated notes. In addition, the keyboard is made of wood, just as with an acoustic piano, providing a solid, natural response.
REMARKABLY DETAILED EXPRESSIVENESS WITH THE YAMAHA ARTICULATION SENSOR SYSTEM.
The NU1X-A features our newly developed Articulation Sensor System, which accurately and continuously captures the pianist’s subtlest performance nuances, through non-contact electromagnetic sensors and Yamaha’s proprietary algorithm. This system utilizes two separate sensors on each key: one for the hammer—the most crucial part of the acoustic piano sound mechanism—and the other for the key itself, to precisely measure the movement of finger release and articulate exactly the special nuances when the sound stops. Together, they fully capture the most delicate expressions of the player.
Yamaha ‘AvantGrand’ N1X Hybrid Grand
Experience the response and feel of an authentic acoustic action.
To express yourself musically, you need to form a physical bond with your instrument. In the case of the AvantGrand series, it starts with real wooden keys with a comfortable touch. Then comes the all-important key action, which the AvantGrand series has inherited from Yamaha’s esteemed concert grand pianos.
Two world-class concert grand pianos in one.
When it comes to judging piano tone, much depends on personal taste. To help you achieve the tonal palette you desire, Yamaha offers the choice of two world-class grand pianos in one—each with its own unique character to convey the emotion you want to express through a piece of music.
At the touch of a button on the AvantGrand N1X, you can opt for authentic sounds sampled either from a Yamaha CFX Concert Grand or from a Bösendorfer Imperial Concert Grand.
Yamaha ‘AvantGrand’ N3X Hybrid Grand
Evolving the sonic spectrum
The AvantGrand series takes a unique approach to reproducing the sound of an acoustic grand piano. When capturing the original source sounds from a specially selected full concert grand, Yamaha technicians took samples from four different positions across the soundboard: left, right, center, and rear. Compared to conventional left-and-right channel (stereo) recording, this yielded wonderfully rich and authentic results.
To make the most of this four-channel source sound, AvantGrand pianos employ Yamaha’s Spatial Acoustic Speaker System—a four-point speaker configuration that allows AvantGrand pianos to deliver faithful three-dimensional recreations of the original instruments. For the N3X, speaker placement mirrors the four recording positions on the source piano.
