Thank you for your advice. I have still bought a baby grand because it is in our lounge and I really don't like the look of the uprights (I know you piano experts will sigh).

Baby Grand Waldstein Vs Schumann

I am planning to buy a replacement baby grand for my daughter, 11 yrs old and Grade 1.

Many thanks.

OLD WOODWORM IN PIANO CASE

Hello

I am considering buying a 1930 Weber baby grand piano. It plays well but there has been some woodworm damage at the bottom of the case.

LEARNING ON A PIANO VERSES A KEYBOARD

Hello Please could somebody give me advice on the best instrument for my 10 year old daughter to learn to play the piano on. She has just passed her prep test. A keyboard with touch sensitve keys which are also weighted seem like a good idea as she can have it in her bedroom. Her piano teacher says ...
