Portland Pianos


Steinway & Sons was founded by master craftsmen, trained in the best European tradition. They built their pianos one at a time, applying skills that were handed down from master to apprentice, generation after generation.

The History of Sherman Clay

As Sherman Clay enters the 21st century, it stands unique. Few companies have operated continuously for over 135 years.

All members of the Family of Steinway-Designed Pianos feature the same unmistakable signature and Steinway & Sons expertise, backed by more than 155 years’ experience of designing and building grand and upright pianos.

Piano Concert Rentals

There’s a reason that 98% of all concert pianists choose to perform on Steinway Pianos. Steinways are unparalleled for responsiveness and beautiful sound. Our instruments have been carefully selected from the Steinway factory in New York and prepared specifically for concert use.

Piano Rebuilding

Restore your treasured Steinway piano with Steinway factory trained technicians and genuine Steinway parts.

How a Piano Works

When a player’s finger strikes a key, it sets the key action (a series of levers connected to a felt hammer) in motion. The hammer strikes one, or a combination of metal strings, which causes them to vibrate. The vibrations are transmitted from the strings to the soundboard through bass and treble bridges. The soundboard converts the vibrations into what is known as piano tone, and amplifies the notes so that they can be heard.

There are over 12,000 specific parts in the typical piano, all of which must function with ease and accuracy.
