THE WORLD TOP RATED PIANOS

Sauter is the world s oldest, continuously run piano company, producing pianos since 1819, with family members still involved in the management of the company.
Sauter has been perfecting the art of piano manufacturing, and has its roots in making pianos for Beethoven. Johann Grimm, the founder of the company, learned the trade of piano making from Johann Andreas Streicher in Vienna, who built Beethoven´s instruments. This is how the founder of SAUTER early became acquainted with the high requirements of the famous composer. After successful completion of his apprenticeship, he started building square pianos himself.

The art of building such high-standard pianos grew into a family tradition, with new improvements and refinements evolving into an excellent culture of sound. Joyfulness in innovation has become an inherent part of their philosophy. SAUTER placed the emphasis on developing the double repetition action of grand pianos and implementing high standard pianos of master quality.
These pianos are beautiful to the eye and ear, and they are also great instruments for the concert stage and the home.

The U1 or U2 are ideal for those who find the height and general size of the U3 series to be to dominating in their room setting or size.
Fitting between the U1 and U3 is the U2 series.
Our clients who love everything about the U3 except its size find the U2 a perfect balance.
The U3 along with the UX3 were the models that put Yamaha on the map around the world, where the standard was generally of european stock. Yamaha changed this with the U3 series.
At 131cm (52") is Yamaha's tallest upright.
The UX3 was a very popular instrument in institutions and orchestra pits where quality of tone and projection was required in a compact upright design.

Its features in addition to those of the U3 are

X braced back posts
Front panel sound diffusion channels
Higher quality hammerheads
The X braced, or radial back posts (hence the X in the model number) are not an original design concept, Yamaha emulated this from the handmade German Grotrian Steinweg upright. This design accounts for its particular quality of increased bass tone and general tuning stability
