Frequently Asked Questions About Blüthner
The majority of Blüthner pianos are still handcrafted in their historic workshops in Neustadt, Germany, though some components may be sourced internationally.
The aliquot system, a Blüthner innovation, adds a third string to the upper treble notes, extending the piano's sustain and creating a richer, more complex tone.
While exceptionally versatile, Blüthner pianos excel in classical and romantic repertoire, offering a particularly warm and expressive voice; they may not be ideal for genres demanding a very bright, percussive sound.
