The Important stuff

Digital. Pianos — The piano is one of the most iconic and versatile instruments in music history. Known for its rich tone and wide dynamic range, it has been central to classical, jazz, pop, and contemporary styles for centuries. Traditional acoustic pianos use strings and hammers to create sound, offering unmatched expressiveness and nuance, while digital pianos provide authentic piano feel with added portability, lower maintenance, and modern features such as recording, headphone practice, and connectivity. From beginner uprights to concert grands and advanced digital models, pianos remain a timeless choice for players, composers, and performers across every genre.. Pianos and Keyboards. Stage —

A Stage Piano is a digital instrument designed specifically for live performance. Built with high-quality piano sounds, authentic weighted key action, and a focus on reliability, stage pianos strip away unnecessary features to deliver expressive playability in a portable format.

They often include a selection of essential voices such as electric pianos, organs, and strings, along with effects and connectivity for amplification or recording. Unlike home digital pianos, stage pianos rarely feature built-in speakers, as they are intended to be used with stage monitors or PA systems.

Favoured by gigging musicians and touring professionals, stage pianos combine the feel of an acoustic piano with the practicality and durability required for life on the road.
