Precious Heritage
Vienna, 1850s: Ignaz and Ludwig Bösendorfer gear all their passion and know how towards building the most advanced grand of their time that shall represent Vienna’s culture and appreciation of piano music. They elaborate and develop upon the feedback and influence of world famous composers and leading artists of their times.

It is our sincere duty and honour to preserve this precious heritage and pass it on to future generations.
Bösendorfer Sound
Tender, playful, suddenly heroic and brilliant: the expression of art knows no limits and transcends black and white categorisation. It is for a reason that the grand piano is often referred to as being a magical instruments. The famous Bösendorfer Sound – its sonorous and warm bass, angelic and brilliant in descant, a breath-taking spectrum of colours within the middle range – is our trademark. The sound symbiosis of artistic play and technical refinement is destined to excite the audience. Our entire devotion and absolute passion for music have led us to perfecting every precious detail of each Bösendorfer Grand. Dynamic sound crafting for nearly two centuries.
Human Touch
Music is as old as the human spirit and resonates with us like nothing else. Without the human touch, a grand piano would instead be silent furniture. The dedication of our Bösendorfer Artisans – every day – is reflected not only within the aesthetics of every Bösendorfer Grand but also in the ultimate piano sound. Technical sophistication and human emotion resonate together in the master craftsmanship of piano manufacturing. Meet us directly in Vienna or in our manufactory and get to know the people behind Vienna's oldest premium piano manufacturer. Only your touch will reveal the unique Bösendorfer Sound within in our instruments. Crafted to be unleashed.
Yet, tradition is not preserving the
ashes burnt but passing on the flame.

Yamaha und Bösendorfer
In 2008, the Japanese enterprise Yamaha acquires Bösendorfer. Conscious and cautious about the precious heritage Bösendorfer is carrying, the Austrian manufactory remains fully independent and continues to be operated as a separate Austrian company, fully owned by Yamaha. Successfully restructured and fortunate to further develop distribution with a partner who is experienced and sophisticated within the music industry allows Bösendorfer to gain new strength. Bösendorfer works closely with Yamaha when it comes down to selling our instruments, however, all Bösendorfer Grands are manufactured in Wiener Neustadt, exclusively. We are confident in our own product development and the latest engineering driven by our local Austrian team. Bösendorfer focuses on the premium manufacturing of close to 300 instruments per year, which are handcrafted close to Vienna, from where it all started.
