Pianos made by: Guangzhou Pearl River Piano Group Co., Ltd., 38, Xiang Shan Avenue, Yong Ning Road, Zengcheng, Guangzhou, China

Established in 1795 in Gottingen, Germany, Ritmüller was the early piano of choice by many
notable European artists, including German composer and pianist Johannes Brahms. Brahms wrote his first piano concerto, Concerto No. 1 in D minor, Op. 15 at the original factory in Gottingen, on a Ritmüller grand.

 

2024 marks the 25th anniversary of Ritmüller's relaunch in modern-day manufacturing, with a complete upgrade by European master piano engineers that began in 2007. The results were two
highly acclaimed new series, impressive by today’s industry standards: the new RS-Superior and
the RSH-Premium series. The two series were officially introduced to the US and the world
market in 2020, receiving rave reviews globally.

The RS-Superior series includes upright and grand pianos, and the RSH-Premium series comprises only verticals. Both series are upgraded with a contemporary logo designed to match the original 1795 trademark.
 
For the Superior Series (RS) of verticals and grands, European experts produced a completely new design that would link the Ritmüller line to its German heritage. This included modern European cabinet styling, top-grade PR2.0 hammers with imported German felt, ebony sharps (not plastic), silver hardware, and Ritmüller actions.
 
The RS-grand models from the Superior series, comprised of the RS150, RS160, RS175, and RS190, all have newly designed Ritmüller action, which completes the grand model lineup.
 
The Premium Series RSH vertical models are specifically designed for institutional use. They have grand-style music racks that, unlike those on most traditional verticals, don’t interfere with a pianist’s hand movements and play like a grand piano. These models come with German felted PR 2.0 hammers, ebony sharps, and a solid tapered soundboard of top-grade spruce.

 

Warranty: 10 years, parts and labor, to original purchaser.
