AUGUST FÖRSTER

A visit to the August Förster factory in the small town of Löbau, Germany, transports one back to a different era. An era where time runs at a slower pace. Craftsmen sitting at traditional woodworkers' benches with well-used hand tools, glue pots, clamps and very little machinery. There used to be dozens of piano makers in this region but today only a few remain. August Förster is one that has always been held in special affection in the piano world.


This is still very much a family affair. Annakatrin Förster manages this perfect jewel of a piano factory together with one of Europe’s most distinguished master piano builders, Mr. Frank Israel. They are both on the production floor daily, putting their hand on each and every piano that leaves the factory bearing this proud family name.


Sit in front of a Förster piano and let your senses guide you; this is what the golden age of piano making was all about. Your fingers caress the flawless finish: rare, rich wood veneers emit a warm glow, the black high-gloss lacquer seems to be a foot thick and so smooth that it is hard to believe that it was polished entirely by hand. The interior finishing is like a Swiss Watch, with metalwork smooth and polished to utter perfection. The keys are a dream to touch; the sharps are still genuine ebony. Play a chord, and you will hear a tone of distinguished nobility and depth – a darker, richer tone than many pianos you have heard. If you crave sonority, power and depth of tone, the August Förster is the instrument for you.

AUGUST FÖRSTER 116D UPRIGHT PIANO

The model 116D is a favourite at Remenyi, because of its uniquely full sound for size. Invariably such a high level instrument gets passed from generation to generation. The advantage of the Continental styling is two-fold. Because the resonating body is in direct contact with the floor, the tone transmission is improved, resulting in the fullest most resonant tone possible. Whether in black gloss or any number of warm wood finishes, the 116 is distinguished by its neutral and understated elegance.

AUGUST FÖRSTER 125G UPRIGHT PIANO
