VOGEL by Schimmel 

VOGEL is Schimmel’s new brand of competitively priced, European pianos.  This new range of pianos makes European high quality instruments accessible to a much wider audience including schools and institutions with limited budgets.

 

Currently there is one 115cm upright VOGEL model available in two styles Traditional (in black only) and Modern (in black or beech satin) and one grand of length 177cm available in black, mahogany and a variety of decorative inlayed cases.

 

VOGEL PIANOS are manufactured in a Schimmel owned, managed and controlled factory in Kalisz / Poland.  The employees are trained by Schimmel, the instruments are designed by Schimmel and major parts like keys, soundboards and strings as well as the strungback assembly for uprights are delivered directly from Schimmel Braunschweig, Germany.

 

VOGEL by Schimmel is designed to become the new market standard in its price range and the European alternative to instruments from Asia.

 

Schimmel is the largest and perhaps the most significant of the German piano manufacturers remaining today. With a production of over 4000 instruments per annum it is Germany’s largest manufacturer and the recently introduced  Konzert series, the product of 10 years of intensive and fundamental research and development, places their pianos amongst the very finest available of whatever brand. The Konzert series has been received with acclaim for its quality and yet is exceptionally competitively priced. It consists of three uprights of heights 122, 125 and 132cm and four grands of lengths 169, 189, 213 and 256cm.

 

Schimmel therefore now offers three ranges of instruments VOGEL, Classic and Konzert, pianos to suit discerning pianists of all levels beginners, amateurs and the most discerning of professionals. 

 

Forsyth always have Vogel instruments in stock as well as a comprehensive range of other brands including Schimmel, Kawai, Bechstein, Yamaha, Kemble etc. Please call into our central Manchester showrooms or phone 0161 834 3281 ext 604 or email pianos@forsyths.co.uk
