Keys

The world of keyboard instruments is extremely diverse – hardly any other family of instruments offers such a wide range of musical expression. Even though many of them look very similar due to their shared piano-style keyboard, they differ greatly in sound, playing feel and application. There is a huge difference between playing an acoustic piano and a keyboard, and it is just as much up to the player whether an organ delivers tasteful background music or a screaming rock organ solo.

Whether you are interested in a keyboard, a professional arranger workstation, an accordion, an oriental keyboard, an acoustic piano, a digital piano, a stage piano or a grand piano – in our keyboard categories you will find everything you need. Our product specialists in the store and via hotline are happy to help you choose the right instrument for your preferred sound, required features and budget. Detailed information on each instrument group and matching accessories is available on the product pages in our online shop.

Acoustic Piano or Digital Piano?

Whatever you decide, our wide range of acoustic pianos, digital pianos and stage pianos makes it easy to find the right model. If you are looking for a classic, traditional instrument, acoustic pianos are the best place to start.

Piano beginners should also have a look at our “used pianos” section, where we offer refurbished instruments with excellent playing characteristics and sound at attractive prices. Digitally generated piano sounds can be just as inspiring: with modern digital pianos you can expect impressive piano tones and high-quality keybeds, even in the lower price ranges.

Synthesizers, Groove Tools & Effects

The synthesizer department at MUSIC STORE professional is considered one of the largest and most inspiring in Europe. In the synthesizer category we offer everything from compact mini synthesizers to fully fledged modular synthesizer systems. A visit is always worthwhile, as all major synthesizer brands are available for hands-on testing – whether you are looking for a small sound gadget, a groovebox or a classic analogue synth such as the legendary Minimoog.

Playing for Fun: Keyboards, Accordions, Organs

Do you want your instrument to provide orchestral sounds, a broad range of solo voices and sounds for arranging? Would you like to entertain party guests or a larger audience with your performance? Then the keyboards section – spanning home keyboards, entertainer keyboards – and our range of organs is the right place to look. You will find a wide variety of options for almost any budget. In addition, there is an extensive selection of acoustic and electronic accordions.

Why a Keyboard Instrument Is Often the First Instrument

Many people start their musical journey with a keyboard instrument – most often with an acoustic piano. It is a classic beginner’s instrument, but there are also many other keyboard categories that can make it easier to get into making music. Home keyboards are particularly popular because they offer a lot of music and fun at a comparatively low price, and they make it easy to learn first chords and melodies. While keyboard keys are not ideal for learning advanced piano technique, they are often a very practical way to get started. Later on, you can still decide whether you want to move to an acoustic piano or to its digital counterpart, the digital piano. For some players, an organ or a synthesizer may be the perfect choice. In every category, the MUSIC STORE online shop offers suitable and affordable instruments for beginners. Thanks to modern digital technology, even compact digital pianos and home keyboards can deliver impressive sound quality. We also offer sheet music, accessories and everything else you need to get started with keyboard instruments.
