Steingraeber & Söhne A-170 Salon Grand Piano – Matte Black Finish
The Steingraeber & Söhne A-170 Salon Grand Piano is a masterfully crafted instrument that combines rich history with modern innovation. Though the design dates back to 1905, this grand piano remains one of the most celebrated salon-sized pianos in the world. Steingraeber does not refer to the A-170 as a "baby grand", as its sound and performance far exceed expectations for its size. Frequently awarded “Best in its Class,” the A-170 boasts a sound presence that rivals much larger grand pianos.
This remarkable tonal achievement is made possible by the piano’s unusually wide body, allowing the use of extra-long bass strings, typically found in larger models. The result is a rich, powerful bass and balanced, full-spectrum tone, unlike any other small grand.
Thanks to a unique bass bridge design—constructed without an apron or base—the sound is never tinny or metallic, a common flaw in many compact grands. Instead, it transmits vibrational energy much like a concert grand, making it a serious instrument for professional use.
The touch and action are built to professional standards, which is why the A-170 can be found on the stages of music schools, studios, and even opera houses, including the renowned Oslo Opera House, where performance space is at a premium.
Every Steingraeber & Söhne piano is handcrafted in Bayreuth, Bavaria, following time-honoured traditions of classical piano building. From acoustics to cabinetry, and from action to pedals, every part is built with natural, resonant materials and meticulous craftsmanship. This allows for extraordinary musical expression and sensitivity, giving the pianist complete control and deep emotional connection with the instrument.
