🎹 Every musician has a beginning.

For Johann Vargas, music became part of his story early on. In this first conversation with Johann, we’re going back to those early years and the experiences that helped shape the musician he would become.

You’ll also hear one of Johann’s original compositions featured in the video. 🎶

If you’d like to hear more of Johann’s music, you can listen for free on his website. His original sheet music is also available for purchase for those who would like to play it themselves:

🎼So much heart goes into every Steinway. ❤️As proud Steinway dealers, we’re honored to help bring that craftsmanship to musicians in our community.

The voice of a Steinway is shaped one hammer at a time.

In the voicing department, a Steinway craftsperson carefully needles the hammer felt, refining its density to achieve the desired tonal color, balance, and responsiveness across the keyboard. Each adjustment is guided by a trained ear and the understanding that every hammer must contribute to a single, beautifully unified voice and the Steinway Sound.

Where precision becomes expression. A tradition carried forward in New York and Hamburg. 🎹
