Studio Concert D 1887

The Studio Concert D 1887 brings to life the sound of the rare and lyrical voice of a remarkable early Steinway D concert grand, serial no. 62523 – the only known instrument of its series (1884–1892) that has actually been preserved in its original condition and professionally restored. This unique piano represents a fascinating moment in Steinway & Sons’ evolution, bridging 19th-century craftsmanship with the innovations to come. Distinct from later Model Ds, it features an additional duplex scale and angled bridge pins that create different string lengths for each note, resulting in a lyrical, singing tone unlike any other concert grand of its time.
