What is an upright piano?

An upright piano, or vertical piano, is a hugely popular musical instrument. Unlike grand pianos, their soundboard and strings are positioned vertically, making them compact and therefore more efficient in saving floor space.

Upright pianos offer a wealth of benefits. They’re often positioned on the market as a much more affordable alternative to grand pianos, and usually incur smaller maintenance fees.

Available in a comprehensive range of designs and sizes, these durable and versatile pianos are guaranteed to suit every kind of pianist – from novice to professional.
