Steinway Spirio Lounge Private concerts at just one touch
Carefully crafted in New York and Hamburg, the grand pianos of Steinway & Sons represent the highest standard of piano music. Just a few metres away from the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, the Steinway Spirio Lounge displays a hand-picked selection of valuable instruments and lets visitors experience the innovations entailed in each of these exhibits.
The dream of playing on an original Steinway grand piano can come true here as visitors are actually allowed to try out the grand pianos at the Steinway Spirio Lounge. Alternatively, you might want to sit back and enjoy a little private concert, for Steinway Spirio is the very first Steinway grand piano to come with an integrated, high-resolution autoplay system. As if by magic, keys and pedals start moving all by themselves, creating a wonderful carpet of sound in the elegant lounge. The autoplay feature is part of an ingenious system that combines the latest technology with the finest craftsmanship and musical talent. As such, the music pieces were pre-recorded by top-class musicians on the grand piano and then programmed via the autoplay system. One tap on the iPad, which includes an excellent music library, is all it takes to immerse yourself in a whole new music experience. For the Spirio system, star pianists such as Lang Lang, Bill Charlap, Olga Kern and Ludovico Einaudi perform their own compositions or play masterpieces of our music era.
