What is an upright piano?
Designed specifically to save on space, an upright piano takes up far less room than a traditional grand piano. It achieves this by having the strings and soundboard running vertically as opposed to being horizontal.

Are you short on space? Are finances a little tight? Then an upright piano could offer the perfect solution.
If you’re looking for exceptional quality sound on a smaller budget, or you would love to own a piano but struggle for space, then an upright is ideal.
