Pianos


Which brand to players prefer?  Steinway vs Bosendorfer vs Bechstein?  Or are you a Historically Informed kind of player and go for Erard?  Or the relative newcomers from the Orient, Yamaha and Samick?

The one you played as a student probably is the only one that will sound 'right'

My mother played classical piano, and we had a Steinway in the house. It was always startling to sometimes hear it played badly or abusively (kids) and yet still sound charming and magical.
