C. Bechstein Piano Manufacturers Information

Visions for a world brand

"Bechstein, a living myth. Bechstein sees its duty in preserving and developing the heritage of its founder. First of all, Carl Bechstein had been an expert. As a wanderer for the art of piano making he had learnt from the best in Europe to develop his own concept afterwards. Carl Bechstein had also been an entrepreneur who succeeded within very short time to gain worldwide prestige for his products. Carl Bechstein had also been a dialogue oriented citizen of this world. He was looking for interchanging ideas, yes, for accompanying important musicians critically; he led an active social life, he took over responsibility for his surroundings."

"Of course, to be able to preserve his heritage needs the economic competence and the courage to make the right decisions in order to guarantee a healthy survival of his brand. It also means struggling continuously for the quality of the instruments. The new grand piano line which will be completed during the anniversary year shows good response especially from the most competent ranks. When great musicians rediscover our grand pianos then we have succeeded in leading the initial struggle of the company's founder into the new century. Instruments in harmony with great music. Instruments with a beautiful soul. Tools for good music - for one of the first languages of mankind."
