Blüthner Model 1 Concert Grand Piano

Blüthner Model 1 Concert Grand Piano

The Blüthner Model 1 Concert Grand Piano represents the pinnacle of European piano craftsmanship. Measuring 280cm (9’2”) in length, this world-class instrument is the preferred choice of concert pianists, orchestras, and composers who seek the most powerful expression of tone and musical range. With over 160 years of heritage, Blüthner’s flagship model delivers the Golden Tone in its purest form—warm, romantic, and resonant across all registers.

What sets the Model 1 apart is its Aliquot System, an innovation by Julius Blüthner that introduces a fourth, unstruck string in the treble section. This design adds shimmering harmonic resonance and long-lasting sustain, creating a sound that is both rich and uniquely expressive. Whether commanding a concert hall or elevating a professional studio, the Model 1 provides precision, presence, and depth that captivate audiences and performers alike.

Constructed using only the finest tonewoods and hand-cast iron frames, the Model 1 also offers extensive customisation options—from rare veneers and high-gloss finishes to tailored cabinet features. It’s more than a piano—it’s a masterpiece built for the most demanding musical environments.
