For the progressing pianist, longer action parts combined with an enlarged soundboard area and lengthened strings, afford increased touch sensitivity and greater dynamic range from this stunning 48” upright piano. Exceptional clarity of pitch and lengthened sustain join to form a truly impressive sonority and richness. Ronisch pianos are powerful in tone, with a bold, commanding presence. The excellence of Ronisch pianos has been well established since 1845 - long before most other piano brands came into existence - assuring today's owners of security, confidence and the pride of ownership rooted in an unusually rich and musical heritage.
