Our History:

Established over thirty years ago by Munich native Carl Demler, Beethoven Pianos offers New Yorkers the widest selection of instruments and piano services at the most competitive prices. Today, Beethoven Pianos is the oldest full service, family-owned piano store in New York City. We offer piano rebuilding, refinishing, concert and private rentals, tuning, moving, piano storage, and a variety of technical support to any piano owner. Our expert staff of technicians, craftsmen and movers is key to our stability in the piano industry. Our years of dedication and service to customers have earned us the patronage of many well-known musicians, actors, and other people of prominence.

Our Mission:

Beethoven Pianos was founded on the belief that we can provide the perfect piano for any player. Our list of customers is impressive and ranges from distinguished musical legends to the everyday music lover. Parents will find our knowledgeable sales staff friendly and helpful while searching for the perfect starter instrument for their child. It is our belief that the piano is both an artistic and intellectual tool of human development—capable of tapping into many talents and abilities that range beyond just the musical. These principles guide us as we strive to musically and intellectually enrich the human mind.

Our Store:

We work hard to find the perfect instrument for you—visit our store for the widest selection of pianos in New York City and perhaps the world. Our customers appreciate the unsurpassed selection of vintage rebuilt Steinway and Mason & Hamlin pianos, as well as an extensive collection of the finest German grand pianos, such as Bösendorfer, Bechstein, Grotrian-Steinweg, Sauter, and Rönisch among others. The variety of our upright pianos is unsurpassed and includes an extraordinary line of Grotrian uprights, of which the model Concertino A 132cm is arguably the best upright being built today. We offer other fine uprights, such as the stylish and minimalist Sauter, pre-owned Yamaha, Kawai, and serviceable spinets and consoles suited for the budget-conscious pianist. Besides a substantial selection of German and Japanese uprights, we are now an authorized dealer of Grotrian, Ritmüller and Pearl River piano companies.

At the heart of Beethoven Pianos' services is our 34,000 square foot rebuilding and storage facility in the Bronx. With a keen eye for detail, our skilled craftsmen rebuild and restore quality pianos every day. We offer a full range of restoration services from building soundboards to wood refinishing. Our craftsmen maintain only the highest industry standards.
