Dear Piano Enthusiasts,

Sitting in my small, grey bank cubicle six years ago, I never dreamed I would run what I now consider to be the best specialized piano shop in Chicago. I was an idealist with a passion for pianos who had the crazy idea of wanting to show the world around me the amazing Fazioli pianos. Of course, it could never be that simple. This adventure has led me to discover other beautiful pianos, meet the interesting, passionate and sometimes famous people who love pianos and produce over 60 concerts a year, two radio programs, an amateur piano competition, and a music festival. I can tell you I never worked this hard, but I never had so much fun either.

Like any independent up against the superstores of this world, it is our selection and service that set us apart. When you are dealing with fine musical instruments, it isn’t always only the price that matters, although we will offer as good a deal as any, but the fact that you are dealing with someone who cares about your instrument and about your enjoyment of it. When we look for instruments for our relatively small showroom, we seek out the hard to find, the particularly good deal, the exquisite sound, the even touch, the responsive action. Then we spend hours making sure they are presented in the best possible condition to facilitate your judgment and choice. In our showroom, located on the ground floor of the historic Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue and in our intimate performance space on the 8th floor, you will find showcased our carefully selected inventory of pianos including Fazioli, Schimmel, Grotrian, Wendl & Lung, Yamaha (digital only), and various used pianos of other well-known brands.

I welcome you to explore our website, and look forward to your visit to our showrooms.

Sincerely,

Thomas Zoells

President
