 Grand Pianos for Hire and Sale

The appearance of a grand piano is stately, monumental and impressive! It is so moreish, including needing enough space and having a fairly generous budget. Some uprights really have brilliant dynamic sound, but with the option of opening the piano matched with a considerably larger sound board, longer strings and overall size, a grand piano holds it own in terms of range, resonance, tonality and responsive touch.

The pianos for hire and sale listed here are stock currently available at the time of the last weekly website update.
