Grand Pianos
I know grand pianos take up a lot of space and tend to be a bit pricey, but if you are serious about learning piano AND you have the room, there really is nothing more enjoyable than learning to play on one of these instruments. The grand piano is the king and will give you the best sound, touch and musical enjoyment. Grand pianos are part of the acoustic piano family.
Sound Quality
The sound of a grand piano is usually better than its vertical partner due to it's longer strings and larger soundboard. The bass in particular produces a full, resonant sustaining sound. The general rule is; the longer the length of the grand piano, the better and richer the sound will be. Please note that baby grand pianos have the same string length as tall uprights so their sound quality is often similar.
Size (Dimensions)
Size is important when it comes to grand pianos. When we talk about size we usually mean length (front to back). A minimum size you should consider is 4'11" or 149cm. Grand pianos that are shorter than this tend to have a poor sound quality.
Baby grand pianos
The term "baby grand piano" usually refers to instruments with a length of 5'3" or less.
