This video presentation highlights the Model B's reputation as an exceptional instrument, combining sensitive touch and powerful sound in an ideal format.
2. General presentation
THE Steinway Model B (211 cm long) is often referred to as «"The perfect piano"». It embodies an exceptional balance between rich sound, tactile quality, and reasonable size.
Steinway designed it as an elegant alternative to the concert grand Model D, retaining the same build quality — the famous continuous bridge, a robust cast iron frame and longer keys — while being suitable for more modest spaces.

| Tone and sustain | A warm resonance and balanced sustain thanks to a diaphragm soundboard designed for the Model B. |
| Expressive touch | Sensitive and dynamic touch, appreciated by serious and professional pianists. |
| Refined aesthetics | Elegant curves, ideal design for living room, studio or small stage. |
