Your pianos can, with the sound of one note, announce the celebration of the freedom and creativity of the human spirit. Please continue doing what you are doing. The artists and listeners will continue to be satisfied. (Sacile 2003)”
“The action is incredibly responsive to every variation in touch, and everything I imagine in my head I can produce with my fingers. It gives me complete freedom to play as I wish. The sound is also very coloured. With the Fazioli you can get great power but also wonderful delicacy which, nevertheless, does not lose its brilliance. The high frequencies and reverberations are always there. This is a great feeling! It has wonderful clarity, especially in the lower register.”
“I got my Fazioli 212 couple years ago from the factory and it’s a dream come true for me. I just adore the clarity and brightness of the diskant and the ballsy middle and bass area. My Fazioli seems to be feeling very well also during the cold and dry Finnish winters.
Every moment with Fazioli is pure joy. ”

Concert grand. The absolute jewel in the crown designed for modern large-capacity concert halls and very big spaces.it has immense power and extraordinary harmonic richness, owing to the increased string length in the bass section. It is endowed with a fourth pedal invented by Fazioli. Located to the left of the three traditional pedals, it reduces the hammer-blow distance THUS reducing the volume without modifying the timbre, at the same time facilitating the performance of glissandos, pianissimos, rapid passages and legatos.
Commissioned by a prestigious hotel in Vancouver, the Fazioli Fairmont piano was designed by a team of renowned architects (McFarlane / Green / Biggar). The white instrument stands out thanks to the elaborate three-dimensional walnut inlay inside its lid.
Aria is all about the music, with a dual vocation: it decorates majestic, prestigious venues, being naturally suited to yachts, boats, palaces, hotels and concert halls. The original visual idea is inspired by a symbolic figure: a bird opening up its left wing, keeping its right wing close to its body, just before taking off in full flight. The sense of lightness in the flight is increased by the intense dark blue colour and the vivid silver of the aluminium.
Semi-concert grand piano. Very similar to the concert grand (F278) in its action and dynamic features; a deep and powerful bass makes this piano excellent for medium-size concert halls. Only slightly smaller than a full concert grand, its tonal richness makes it an ideal instrument for chamber music. Dimensions: H100 cm/ W 155 cm/ L 228 cm
Considered across the world as the classic size for performing and teaching, this piano is also suitable for medium concert halls.

Baby grand. A mellow, rich and brilliant sound suited for the entire piano repertoire. With a fine balance between the bass and treble, this piano has a projecting tone, which exceeds its dimensions. Dimensions: H 98 cm/ W 152 cm/ L 183 cm
The smallest model of the FAZIOLI collection. Despite its small size, this piano has a remarkably powerful and clear sound. Suitable for smaller settings where the player does not wish to renounce to the sound and action of a high-quality grand piano. Dimensions: 156 cm x101 cm x 152 cm
A special Black and White ebony essence, precious and rare wood from South-Eastern Asia and Laos, covers this F183 model, where tone gradations and shades leave space to knifelike streaks and intense colours, thus creating a pattern of sharp contrasts. This unusual finish can adapt to a modern design just as much as it can add value to the most elegant locations.
The legs are not traditionally shaped, but rounded in a series of concentric rings with various diameters; the pedalboard recalls the shape of a lyre and the music desk is perforated in rich motifs: these elements remind us the image of a nineteenth-century piano. The choice of a beautiful walnut veneer further enhances this elegant instrument.
A 24-carat gold leaf completely covers this F228 piano model, giving it a touch of royal prestige. The transparent polyester that protects the gold leaf gives the surface a precious luminosity of iridescent shades.
Designed by NYT Line The music of shape and the design of sound are expressed in this M. Liminal model, designed by NYT Line and Philippe Gendre. Just as consonance and dissonance are organised in music, M. Liminal's shapes and colours are combined in asymmetric designs, simultaneously generating a composite and organic unit, as in nature. Inspired by the sea, the shape of the side evokes the profile of a wave while the black-silver colour recalls that of a dolphin. The red of the soundboard and black of the cast iron frame filter through the transparency of the Plexiglas music stand.
This example of a specifically commissioned piano features an unusual red high gloss varnish with a hand-painted reproduction of a Canaletto painting which celebrates the ancient connection between Venice and China: the client's country.
A polished olive veneer covers this FAZIOLI F183 baby grand, wrapping it up in warm streaks which lend relaxing, natural tones to the instrument.
This precious F308 in red elm brier was designed by architect Ernest Collins upon his client's request, who wished to have a music room with a piano matching the Georgian style of his house. In fact, the medallions recall motives used by the great English cabinetmakers of the 18th century, as do the mother-of-pearl decorations, which give a touch of elegance and brightness to the special case.
Designed by Robert McKay and conceived for the spectacular location of Lloyd Bruce Home Collections in Coal Harbour, Vancouver, this exclusive piano is made of a precious tamo veneer. This finish, combined with the silver colour of the iron frame, logos, pedals and other metal parts, gives particular warmth, elegance and light to the project.
Inlays of natural and coloured wood, mother-of-pearl and semi-precious stones can give birth to complex designs, beadings and arabesques. To embellish this F212, the chosen stone is Malachite, while the wood is walnut.
This one-of-a-kind piano was designed by Gregory Henriquez, architect for TELUS Garden, a lobby of the new TELUS headquarters located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, Canada. The architect drew inspiration from the design of the office building itself. Rather than opting for traditional black, Gregory Henriquez chose a natural wood finish, echoing the dramatic, sculptural glulam beams of the expansive plaza canopy. The legs supporting the piano mimic the distinctive V-shaped concrete structural supports that are an integral part of the tower's design. And in a nod to the high-tech features of TELUS Garden office, the inside panel of the lid is mirrored, providing viewers with a clear perspective of the piano�s inside.
This refined piano F228 model is fully realised in Macassar Ebony, a dark wood endowed with amber streaks that render the instrument particularly elegant and valuable
Bing Thom Architects and Fazioli have created a custom instrument designed to reflect Westbank's latest architectural project in the heart of downtown Vancouver, The Butterfly. The architects sought to capture the same experiential qualities inherent in the design of this futuristic tower. The lightness of the legs and rails echoes the open garden breezeways, while its delicately sculpted geometry recalls the soft undulations of the tower�s skin, abstracted from the surrounding landscapes.
Since Alberni Street in Vancouver strives to create a new high-rise experience by introducing a soft and intimate idiom particular to Japanese space, the designer of this extraordinary grand piano thought of how the piano could evoke the same feelings. By layering sheets of hinoki wood - a spiritual material in Japan used for building temples - and by carving the piano in a similar manner as the tower, this instrument looks light, textured, and warm - its hallowed formations implying an almost geological, timeless character.
Commissioned by the owners of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel in Vancouver, the Origami Fazioli piano was originally designed by a team of renowned architects (McFarlane / Green / Biggar). The white coloured instrument distinguishes itself thanks to the elaborate tri-dimensional incision, made of walnut wood, located on the internal side of the lid. When the piano was refurbished in 2019, the owners invited Origami Master Joseph Wu to contribute to the design.
The inside of this instrument, including the soundboard, is entirely lacquered in black high-gloss polyester. The iron frame is finished in silver and all the metallic components are chrome-plated. These features combine to create an unusual F228 piano, conceived by the world-famous architect Norman Foster. This model has been named "Silver" because of the impact created by its silver iron frame.
