SAUTER | Over 200 years of German handcraft and expertise

SAUTER | CRAFTED BY
HAND


One of only a few piano manufacturers in the world to craft their pianos entirely in-house using 100% German parts, skilled handcrafted labour defines the SAUTER sound, not machines.

SAUTER crafts by hand all the parts that gives a piano its soul. Brilliant, clear sound is a hallmark of this fine German piano – a tone that has been appreciated for nearly 200 years.

The Design Edition from SAUTER offers ample evidence of the "piano avant-garde", a visionary new interpretation of the piano, and variations on the sound space of the future. The result is timeless classics-clear, abstract and downsized.

FOR TODAY'S LIVING ENVIRONMENTS

Internationally acclaimed interior designer Peter Maly has designed nine uprights and two grand pianos exclusively for SAUTER. These designs are truly new creations and represent completely different styles. They are based on extensive research into contemporary living environments and on the discovery that a piano is an obvious part of modern living and should be designed to reflect that fact.

In other words... a piano is not just an instrument, but a beautiful piece of home furniture.

NEW VISION FOR PIANO CONSTRUCTION

The Design Edition marks a milestone in SAUTER's philosophy of innovation in the art of piano building. A main component of this philosophy is the perspective on which the design initiative is founded: the view past the boundaries of the instrument into today's living environments. And the need to integrate the culture of sound with that of living.
