For Schimmel only one thing counts: that you should discover personal happiness with your Schimmel piano. The requirements for upright or grand pianos are as widely varied as the pianists themselves. For this reason, Schimmel has developed an individual brand world with an extensive range of quality instruments in all product and price categories.
Uprights with the soul of a grand piano
The power of innovation is prevalent at Schimmel: our constructors constantly work on the adaptation of instruments to the highest demands. The best example is the development of our Konzert upright model. This concept initially puzzled the experts, as concerts are normally performed on a grand piano. Outside the concert hall, numerous pianists are forced to practise on an upright instrument. This prompted us to develop the Konzert Piano Line which is orientated towards the tonal and performance characteristics of grand pianos.
"Music is the sound that thinks": a quotation by Victor Hugo. We go a step further: music is the sound that feels and moves our most inner soul. This conviction has helped to ensure that the most frequently played pianos produced in Germany are made by Schimmel. The firm’s instruments are utilised in countless institutions and numerous private customers set great store by the name of Schimmel. In addition, we have received a large number of awards for our pianos in instrument tests.
Grand and upright pianos made by Vogel are manufactured by hand according to craftsmanship traditions which have been passed down through generations – with great care to detail. This requires time, patience and a high degree of technical instinct and sensitivity. For this reason, experienced specialists ensure that the brand “Vogel by Schimmel” guarantees European tonal culture and handicraft. This makes piano playing an all-round perfect experience!
