Self-Playing Pianos
The Future of the Player Piano
Self-Playing Pianos – The Future of the Player Piano
Have you ever experienced the magic of a self-playing piano? The ones which you might have seen at a shopping centre, a hotel, an airport, or other public space that play a beautiful tune – keys being pressed quickly, expertly, as if by a ghost?

It is truly a wonder to behold, and it’s hard not to marvel at the extraordinary technology that can transform an acoustic piano into a piano that plays itself. Those charming grand or upright pianos, that can be up to 100 years old, instantly converted into a modern player piano.
The advancements in self playing technology in recent years has seen the performance of these systems line up with the accuracy of a live, professional pianist. From soft pianissimo to loud forte, it is incredible how realistically an automatic piano can play.
These wonderful self-playing pianos can now bring the joy of music to more people than ever before!
