The Pinnacle of Musical Mastery

Step into the rarefied world of uncompromising craftsmanship and sonic luxury with the Bösendorfer 290 Imperial – the crown jewel of concert grands. Hand-built in Austria with over 200 years of piano-making heritage, the Imperial isn’t just an instrument; it’s a statement.

With 97 keys, extending eight full octaves, the 290 Imperial offers an unparalleled tonal range – deep, resonant basses that rumble like thunder, and crystalline trebles that shimmer with clarity. This extended range wasn’t created on a whim – it was inspired by a request from composer Ferruccio Busoni to accommodate transcriptions of organ works, giving performers access to a new dimension of musical expression.

The soundboard, crafted from alpine spruce and tuned like a resonating body of a string instrument, gives the Imperial a uniquely warm, rich, and singing tone – a sonic signature cherished by virtuosos and discerning composers alike.

Every detail, from the hand-finished cabinetry to the responsiveness of the action, speaks of excellence. Whether commanding a concert hall or anchoring a luxury home studio, this piano delivers not only unrivaled performance, but timeless elegance.

This is not simply a grand piano. It’s the Bösendorfer 290 Imperial – where power meets poetry.
