August Förster Grand Piano (Germany, 2003) 170
A truly hand-crafted German piano, built with uncompromising care and tradition. August Förster pianos are renowned for their meticulous craftsmanship and are among the few European makers that continue to build instruments largely by hand.
This piano features a premium Ciresa spruce soundboard, delivering a rich, singing tone with clarity and depth — often compared to the refined, lyrical sound associated with top-tier Italian and Austrian instruments. The tonal character is distinctly European: warm, transparent, and expressive, with excellent dynamic control.
The action touch is crisp and responsive, offering a refined, precise feel reminiscent of high-end German and Austrian pianos, yet at a far more accessible price point than instruments such as Bösendorfer.
Manufactured in 2003, this August Förster is in excellent condition and represents a rare opportunity for pianists seeking a genuine European, hand-made piano with outstanding musical character, craftsmanship, and long-term value.
