Unique aliquot

A rich, warm and colourful sound

All Blüthner grand pianos (with the exception of the model 11, our smallest grand piano) are equipped with the Blüthner Aliquot patent. In the highest treble section of our grand pianos, each note is assigned a fourth string, which is slightly raised from the others and not struck by the hammerheads. The aliquot string resonates in unison with the note played, thereby amplifying it and creating a rich, warm and colourful sound. The system was developed by Julius Blüthner over 150 years ago and is considered a key facet of the Blüthner Golden Tone.

Characteristics of Blüthner's Aliquot System:
Four strings in the treble section: The fourth string is a sympathetic string that helps produce a more harmonic and resonant tone.
Improved tonal quality: The sympathetic vibration of the fourth string gives the Blüthner pianos a distinctive, rich, and resonant treble sound.
Presence in higher-end models: While the system was used in some of Blüthner's more luxurious and professional models, it was often found in mid-sized grand pianos like the Model 5 and Model 6.

Keyboard

Ultimate precision and control

The keyboard is the component through which the pianist expresses their musicality and connects with the piano. With over five-and-a-half thousand moving parts within the action and damper structure alone, utmost precision is required to enable a responsive touch from gentle pianissimo to vigorous fortissimo, whilst retaining full control. To achieve excellent stability, the key bed is manufactured of alternate layers of Red Beech and German Pine, whereas the keys of our instruments are made of fine Bavarian Mountain Spruce and high-density Ebony. White key tops are made of acrylic. Height and depth of touch are meticulously weighted and adjusted for ultimate precision and control.

Frame construction

Traditionally crafted iron frame

The iron frame is cast in a quartz sand mould using traditional methods. To withstand the enormous tension of nearly twenty tonnes, the design of each frame is precisely calculated and manufactured. Each frame is seasoned outside for two years before being sprayed to a high quality-finish and individually fitted to an instrument.
