SPIRIO

The new STEINWAY & SONS SPIRIO is the world’s finest high resolution player piano. A masterpiece of artistry and engineering in your home, SPIRIO enables you to enjoy performances captured by great pianists — played with such nuance, power and passion that it is utterly indistinguishable from a live performance.

 

pure STEINWAY

SPIRIO, a handcrafted STEINWAY like all others, is the next step in STEINWAY’S history of ceaseless improvement in its mission — declared by Henry E. “to build the best piano possible” — and brings the unparalleled craftsmanship of the STEINWAY piano to your home coupled with cutting-edge technology and the peerless musicality of STEINWAY ARTISTS.

We invite you to download our STEINWAY BROCHURE and experience the STEINWAY story — a continuing tradition of craftsmanship, superior materials and consummate artistry.

inspired & intuitive TECHNOLOGY

The SPIRIO’s high resolution playback system captures the nuance and passion the STEINWAY ARTIST intended by using proprietary software to measure hammer velocity (up to 1020 dynamic levels at a rate of up to 800 samples per second) and proportional pedaling, for both the damper pedal and soft pedal (up to 256 pedal positions at a rate of up to 100 samples per second). The soft trills, delicate pedaling, and thundering fortissimos that separate the world’s finest artists are reproduced with unparalleled accuracy with SPIRIO, precisely realizing both the pianist’s and the piano’s entire range of motion and emotion.

world-class MUSIC LIBRARY

At the touch of the iPad provided with the STEINWAY & SONS SPIRIO, the SPIRIO app connects you to hundreds of performances, bringing your STEINWAY grand piano to life. This exclusive SPIRIO library, which is regularly and automatically updated, features everything from J.S. Bach to Irving Berlin to Billy Joel, and unlocks the furthest reaches of the instrument’s expression, regardless of your playing ability.
