Schimmel SP189 Handcrafted German Conservatory Grand

Since 1885 Schimmel has been handcrafting classic grand and vertical pianos adhering to the very high standards established by the top European builders in the 19th Century. Founded in Leipzig, Germany, Schimmel is now headquartered in Braunschweig and is still a family-owned business, in its fourth generation.

Unlike most European makers, Schimmel early on embraced modern computer-aided technology that greatly improved all aspects of piano making from acoustic research, cabinet design, and component building.  They are now the most highly awarded German piano.

Known for the “European Sound,” these pianos have a clear, bell-like singing tone with prolonged sustain, perfect for someone who loves the Romantic and Impressionistic styles.  And, at 6′ 3” in length, it has a beautifully balanced tonal range and exceptional dynamics.

The SP189 is a conservatory size grand that fits into the performance-level category of high-end pianos.  With its German Renner action, hand-selected European woods for the soundboard, bridges, pinblock, and rims, it will satisfy the needs of any advanced player.

For a serious pianist who loves the European sound and quality German craftsmanship, who is also on a budget, this could be a dream piano.

This piano would today be very similar to their current 6’ 3” Model C-189 which has an MSRP of $102,038!
