The Steinway grand piano was first created in 1836 by German immigrant Henry Engelhard Steinweg. He and his sons, C.F. Theodore and William, began manufacturing Steinway pianos in a small workshop in New York City. The company soon became known as Steinway & Sons.
The Steinway sons helped expand the company and today, it remains the preeminent producer of Steinway grand pianos in the world. They have factories in Hamburg and Queens, New York, where they produce about two thousand Steinway musical instruments each year.
The first reason for investing in one of these stunning instruments is because they will last for a very long period of time if properly cared for and restored when needed. Steinway & Sons has been making pianos since 1853 - there's no other piano company with such an extensive manufacturing record!
The third reason to choose a Steinway grand piano is because of its unparalleled sound quality. Steinway pianos have been used by some of the most renowned pianists and musicians in history, including Sergei Rachmaninoff, Vladimir Horowitz, Arthur Rubinstein and Glenn Gould.

There are a few types of Steinway piano models. They are Steinway model D, model A and model B. The Steinway model A is a little smaller than the model B, but both have the same sound quality. On the other hand, the Steinway model D is the largest with the most superior sound quality.
There are various sizes of Steinway grand piano models. They include the baby grand (five feet one inch), medium grand (five feet seven inches), living room grand (about six feet), salon grand (six feet two inches), classic grand (six feet eleven inches), and concert grand (about nine feet).
