About Steinway Pianos
Steinway & Sons founder Heinrich Englehard Steinweg, started building pianos in 1835. In 1850, he emigrated to the U.S. with his family and Americanized the family name by changing it to Steinway. He and his sons worked for other piano manufacturers for a few years to learn the American way of doing business, then founded Steinway & Sons in 1853. They applied their 20 years of piano-making experience to develop and patent revolutionary piano enhancements that resulted in pianos with a fuller, more powerful sound, a more sensitive action and stronger frames. They did this at a time when the popularity of pianos was growing rapidly in the U.S., and they quickly became the standard by which other pianos were made. According to Larry Fine’s The Piano Book, “By the 1880s, the Steinway piano was in most ways the modern piano we have today.” To this day, Steinway constantly strives for greater precision and efficiency and produces some of the finest pianos in the world.
