A masterpiece of craftsmanship, technology and artistry Spirio provides an unrivaled musical experience, indistinguishable from a live performance.
The simple touch of an iPad® brings your Steinway & Sons piano to life. Hundreds of performances from the world’s greatest artist invite you to enjoy life’s greatest musical moments. The Spirio music library, with performances exclusively captured at the Steinway Studios in New York City, is regularly and automatically updated. “Spirio owners never pay for the music in their catalog,” Steinway’s Stephen Millikin says. “It’s all free, all the time.” The library features everything from Back to Irving Berlin to Billy Joel.
The mechanisms are seamlessly integrated into a fully functioning Steinway & Sons grand piano as it is built, with no impact on the quality or clarity of sound. Steinway Spirio pianos play exactly the same as a traditional Steinway piano. Absent are the unsightly boxes and lights of ordinary player piano system – a testament to the classic and classy look of the Steinway piano, the only piano that makes a statement before it makes a sound. It boasts all of the touch and tone you’ve come to expect from any Steinway piano.
“Every nuance, every color, every singing note, fast passage-work as well as pedaling, repeats exactly as I played,” says acclaimed pianist Jeffrey Biegel, one of the first artists to record for Spirio. “I personally find this playback to be the finest sound reproduction of any I have heard and seen.”
You will enjoy listening to Spirio as much as today’s best artists enjoy playing on one!
“The Spirio is taking the humanity, spontaneity and richness of the Steinway piano sound into the 21st Century,” says Elizabeth Joy Roe of keyboard duo Anderson & Roe. “It marries technology with something analog in a really beautiful way.”
