A Centennial Era Masterpiece with Modern Performance Specifications The "Transition" Steinway: 88 Keys | All-Steinway Action This is not your average Victorian Steinway.

It features the 88-note keyboard construction that define the modern Steinway, all housed in a breathtaking, hand-carved Art-Case cabinet. The Technical Restoration This instrument has undergone an extensive professional rebuilding and refinishing process, ensuring it plays with the precision of a new piano while retaining its unique 19th-century tonal color. •Action: Outfitted with a newer, all-Steinway action (including hammers, shanks, knuckles, capstans, and wippens). The action shows almost no wear and offers the legendary Steinway feel.
