Ibach Semi-Concert Grand Piano Review | Living Pianos

Ibach has a rich history as one of Germany’s finest pianos ever produced. We have been lucky here at Living Pianos to have offered a select few Ibach pianos over the years and the people who have gotten them have been overjoyed at the sound and technical excellence of these instruments.

I have an Ibach grand from 1913 that has been restored. Truly amazing instrument

[HS-wpvb]

For an instrument that is over 100 years old, the sound is truly amazing. My piano teacher also had an Ibach. Sadly, the company went out of production several years ago, until then the oldesst piano manufacturer in the world.

This is really beautiful sound. Age is a positive thing. This eclipses most pianos.

LOVE Ibach!! one of my very best friends in college had a Ibach semi-concert grand, it was a HUGE pleasure to play - love the sound and the feel!

[Zoco]

Wow. Am I the first to comment? This piano sounds sublime. It's warm in a way that doesn't surrender much clarity. Maybe there are even warmer pianos, but its warmth is sort of benign. It sounds like a gentle giant, and listening, you feel like there's unlimited power there, just in case something extraordinary comes along in the music. I'm so glad it was restored.

I grew up playing on an Ibach upright piano, it was my first and only piano when I was in Singapore. I was forced to sell the piano when my dad’s business failed. I stopped playing when I moved to Canada. I recently started playing again after 20 years. I can no longer afford an Ibach and there are so few in Toronto where I now live. I have no choice but to buy a Yamaha Clavinova CSP 170 because I live in a condo. You can imagine how badly I miss the sound of Ibach. I cry when I hear the sound. It’s different from other pianos. Very deep and clear on the base notes and very ringing on the high treble notes.

I want to experience one of these so badly I suspect a feel and sound closer to that of a August Forster but there have been exceedingly rare in the wild, especially so with their closure several years ago . Lovely piano! I think the only other one I have not been able see is your even rarer ones from Richard Lipp /Stuttgart, Medtner in particular preferred /liked those quite a bit
Great video Robert ! Congrats on the growth and new showroom!

This Ibach Piano Kinda Reminds Me Of A Brand New Piano Even It Is 107 Years Old And Being Rebuild With A Beautiful Polished Ebony Black

[alexanderpianos]

I have one from 1886, we are taking it to town tomorrow for a fundraising event, a great many pianists really enjoy this piano. It has been used for many tracks, theres something special in the tone. It would be very hard for me to sell this instrument

[MadisonTen]

What a beautiful clean crisp sound. Amazing.

[jung]

The tone is really really beautiful colourful warm. !!

[michaelngiam]

Wonderful piano, and thank you for the performance. Have you dreamed of what a characteristics a "perfect piano" would have?

[Lion_McLionhead]

Someday, when every other company in the world has been bought out, there's going to be an Apple iBach.

[spibach]

Partly because I'm related, I've wanted one my whole life but could never find one I could afford.

And Ibach Was Founded In 1794 Whch Is 227 Years Ago!

[emmanuelmide]

Is Ibach the same as Rud-Ibach-sohn piano??

[studentjohn]

Can't wait until Robert takes in a pre-1940 Feurich from the orginal factory in Leipzig.

[JasonFarnham]

Ibach is not manufacturing pianos anymore- the company went out of business about 10 years ago.

[mudgebauer]

You moved from California to New Mexico? Now another state? Why all the moves?

[mymatemartin]

How is such a big piano considered 'semi concert'? What constitutes a full concert grand?
