Welcome to Tasteværk

Pianobuilding with passion

We love pianos and grand pianos - as a piano builder, the piano is a matter of the heart.

For us, every single instrument has a life, albeit sometimes very hidden.

We at TASTENWERK would like to give pianos and grand pianos, which piano builders before us have breathed life into with a lot of time and leisure, new life for the next decades. Our motto is not to discard and scrap, but to preserve the value of traditional craftsmanship!

In our exhibition we present you exclusively selected instruments, which originate from the German and European piano building art. These are extensively technically overhauled and tonally refined in our piano workshop, so that they can come almost as good as new into a new home, where someone will play on it to their heart's content for many years to come.

A mechanism like clockwork

For me, the action of the piano or grand piano is symbolically the heart of this wonderful instrument. Just as the soundboard or resonating body reflects the soul of the instrument. The action pulsates, it thunders powerfully and with all the force of nature, and in the next moment it caresses the strings of the instrument very delicately! Even after many years of work, it is still an absolute work of art, and to get behind the secrets of this work of art requires not only experience and intelligence. Above all, it requires time. Time to see through its strengths and weaknesses, to respond to the manufacturer's own peculiarities and to use them as strengths. Because, a perfectly adjusted action gives you as a piano player exactly what you want: The feeling of being able to approach the instrument, to become one with the instrument and to simply feel good! This is exactly what we as piano builders at Tastenwerk understand as our task. FEEL GOOD WITH YOUR PIANO (or grand piano!)
