C. Bechstein's superior pianomaking concept considers the instrument as a whole, rather than just individual details. The instruments' quality and longevity are rooted in the experience and excellent training of craftsmen who devote as much time to their work as perfection requires. The adjustment of the sound body and the action assembly in particular are indispensable ingredients in individualized, premium-class music instruments.

Insisting on the best; making quality management an integral part of the manufacturing process; using components with the Gold or Silver Line seal of quality - these are the reasons why our pianomakers proudly identify themselves with their product. C. Bechstein has had many suppliers over its 150-year history. From this perspective, no supplier's name is an absolute benchmark. Instead, all of our suppliers must attain the same standard of excellence that C. Bechstein sets for itself.

Moreover, the company invests in training far beyond the high requirements of German pianomaking standards. Every technician trained at C. Bechstein learns to play the piano, and participates in regular in-house music competitions.
