I Want a Grand Piano!
Grand pianos are far more superior than their "siblings", the upright pianos...... A grand piano not only is bigger, but the sound is way richer and fuller than a regular acoustic piano. Grand pianos are an excellent investment if you have several (and serious) pianists in the family and want to make it in the concert music business.....
When making a decision to buy a piano, several factors need to be taken into consideration. The most obvious one is money! Can you afford a grand piano? Do you have room in your house for one? (You really cannot have a grand piano in a small room......) What is your level of proficiency? What are your goals with the piano?
If you have the money, the space and are serious about your development as a pianist or your kid's development, then..... Go for it!! It will be an investment for a lifetime!
But which are the best grand pianos?
Let's find out together....
Best Grand Pianos
Invest in a Good Piano Maker!

If you are serious about buying a grand piano, go for quality! Don't try to get a "cheaper" brand to save money. It doesn't make any sense. If you can't afford a good grand piano, it is better to buy a good quality upright piano!
Which are the best grand pianos?
In America, the top manufacturers are Steinway (high end quality on grand pianos) and Baldwin (often sold under the Wurlitzer or Chickering piano names).
Recently, an Italian grand piano brand has been climbing up the ladder among the best grand piano brands. It's called a Fazioli, named after Italian concert pianist and engineer Paolo Fazioli.

Baldwin Grand Pianos
Baldwin Pianos

Baldwin, like many other manufacturers, began building player pianos in the 1920s.
Baldwin pianos were named after Dwight Hamilton Baldwin, a violin and reed organ teacher.
In 1862 Baldwin opened a music store in Cincinnati, Ohio but the first Baldwin piano (an upright) was introduced in 1891.
The company, now a subsidiary of Gibson Guitar Corporation, has manufactured instruments under the Baldwin, Chickering, Wurlitzer, Hamilton, and Howard names.
Numerous musicians have chosen to compose, perform, and record using Baldwin pianos.
So if you can get your hands on a Baldwin grand piano, you are also very lucky!
Fazioli Grand Pianos
Fazioli Italian Pianos

Fazioli Pianoforti is a piano manufacturing company based in Sacile, Italy.
Fazioli currently offers six models of grand pianos, the largest being the Fazioli F308, which at 3.08 m (10 ft 2 in) in length is the longest piano available on the general market.
The Fazioli is noted for its inclusion of a fourth pedal on the F308. This pedal brings the hammers closer to the strings, decreasing the volume while maintaining a normal tone.
Fazioli is now among the top three best grand piano and piano makers in the world!

Grand Pianos or Uprights?
Have you ever played a grand piano? Do you think they are really worth the price?

If you can afford a grand piano, go for it! They are the best in the world!
DeniseDurham2011 says:
my mom was a concert pianist & the Grand is theeeeee best!
ohcaroline says:
Give me a grand any day...I would find a place to put it.
PianoStreet says:
Yes, of course they are worth the price! It's hard to imagine the amount of knowledge, skill and patience needed to build a really good grand piano. Hopefully this great lens will inspire more people to make the investment. However, there are also excellent upright pianos which will sometimes even beat the smaller grands in terms of sound quality.
leahjsongs says:
Yes I've played them and YES they're worth it!!!
COUNTRYLUTHIER says:
Grands are the way to go. I'm looking to see a Bosendorfer show up in a lens, (hope, hope). One of my favorite gospel artists plays one from time to time and it is neat to see the extended keyboard of a Bosendorfer. Great ebony and ivory lens squiddly one. Keep it up!
Not worth the price.... You can get almost the same sound on a good quality upright piano....

- I miss having a grand around. In college and Seminary I was blessed with Steinways and Baldwins, and I fell in love with a Kawai grand with a Steinway soundboard built into it. Now I have a digital piano because I live in an apartment on a budget. MISS THOSE DAYS!
