The Schimmel Factory and early arrivers to the Schimmel Anniversary
Forsyth were honoured to be invited to the 125th Anniversary celebrations of the Schimmel piano company in Braunschweig, Germany together with representatives of the piano industry from all over the globe. There were well wishers from France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia, USA, Australia even Vietnam all joined together to celebrate the outstanding qualities of the new Schimmel instruments. It was particularily pleasing as it was officially announced that the Schimmel company was now back in full health and had been returned to entirely 100% family owned status (previously 24.9% share was owned by Yamaha Corporation even though the company was 100% family controlled).
Other exciting anouncements were the development of distinctive new case work features and the impending release of two new models the new entry level all German instrument the C114MJ and K125T from the Classic and Konzert ranges respectively. We will be writing more on these developments soon!

We are proud to announce a piano specially commisioned by a client. The client gave our Managing Director, Dr Robin Loat, the brief to design a grand piano case to suit her exquisite Arts and Crafts Style home. The piano features specially selected oak veneers, carefully inlaid with a typical Art and Crafts flower motif. The instrument is supported upon three substantial plinths which are in keeping with the weight (~350Kg) which they have to support.
Not only are Yamaha offering a part exchange bonus when you change to a new Yamaha Piano (acoustic, Silent or Disklavier) bought from Forsyth but if you buy a new Silent Piano you also get a free Yamaha Micro Hi-Fi system. Aren’t they kind?
OH and all our Yamaha pianos are at special prices and you can beat the VAT rise!
If you’re in the market for a digital piano in the run up to Christmas, make sure you visit or phone Forsyths this week. We’re running some unrepeatable offers on Kawai digital pianos. There won’t be many opportunities to get digital pianos this good at these prices. Vist, call or email to find out more.
The British Piano Fair is an annual event where the British Piano industry gather at Lord’s Cricket Ground. Manufacturers, retailers and teachers are always well represented and this year’s event was no exception. As a major Yamaha piano dealer Forsyth’s were invited to a special evening where Jamie Cullum gave a live performance on an S-series piano (Forsyth has a Yamaha S4 in stock). Here they are for you to enjoy…
The ultra-exclusive Porsche Designed Bosendorfer grand piano is now available for viewing in our Manchester Showroom. This is the only such instrument in the UK. The minimalist sleek design is the perfect compliment to a modern designer home.
Bosendorfer is the most exclusive piano maker in the world. Every instrument is handcrafted over many months in their Viennise workshops using the finest materials and the most highly skilled artisans (and we really mean this! it takes more than 12 years training to progress beyond “apprentice”). No other instrument in the world is made with such pain staking care. The result is an instrument with a rich luxurious tone which is much better suited to the modern home than the harder sound of the less exclusive Steinway pianos.
Quality Grand Pianos
At Forsyths, we pride ourselves on having one of the finest selections of pianos assembled in the UK, all under one roof. This means we can offer you the best possible choice when purchasing a piano. All levels and requirements are generously catered for and our expert staff can advise you through the process.
Also, our team of in house piano technicians make sure that every single piano that passes through the shop is maintained to the highest possible standard, ensuring quality in every piano we sell.
