Steinway & Sons Japan, Ltd., founded in 1997, offers Steinway, Boston and Essex instruments to individual customers, as well as music halls, schools and universities — in addition to technical service.
Steinway’s Tokyo showroom features a dazzling design that seeks to recreate the craftsmanship, philosophy, and beauty of the Steinway with architecture that incorporates the history of Steinway & Sons. A string screen on the façade features 12,000 steel piano wires — the same number of parts in a Steinway — with the same number of wires laid out around the façade. The invisible tension of the strings brings serenity to the space’s atmosphere, as delicate as a Steinway’s assembled mechanics.
Steinway & Sons Tokyo will officially open on May 15, 2017.
