Established in 1795, Ritmüller quickly became one of the most acclaimed and innovative names in European piano making. Many of the most famous composers of the 19th century became devoted to Ritmüller pianos, including Johannes Brahms who often played on a Ritmüller in the city of Göttingen. In 2009, using scale designs from its German origins, Pearl River revived the Ritmüller name by combining traditional European hand craftsmanship and components, with advanced CNC technologies to create a series of instruments featuring the warm, rich singing tone that defines a world-class piano with a German linage. Today, in the most modern piano factory in the world, Ritmüller continues to seek perfection in design and performance worthy of its name.
European piano design is the foundation for the construction of each individual Ritmüller model. From wet sand-cast iron plates to close-grained solid spruce soundboards, and from German hammers and felt to rock maple bridges and pin-blocks, Ritmüller upright and grand pianos are manufactured to the highest standards.
