length. When it comes to power, the
Concert Grand is considered to be the
most powerful due to its size. The
sound that this grand piano produces
is characterized to be full and heavy
making it fill even a large concert hall.

strings as well contribute to the power
of its sound. Its big size and superior
sound make it perfect for serious
pianists especially for huge
performances in larger venues such as
concert halls.

Parlor Grand

Parlor grand pianos or the `living room
grand pianos" are the middle-sized
pianos and they typically measure about
5 to 7 feet in length. In sound, this size
of grand piano can also deliver a tone
well but not as good as what concert
grand's can produce. Parlor grand's are
common in homes which have an ample
space for this beautiful musical
instrument. Moreover, most churches
schools and conservatories use this
grand piano type because of its size
which is not so big and not so small.

Baby Grand

This third type of grand piano according to size is
considered to be the smallest among the grand
pianos and considered also to be the most
popular. When it comes to tone, because of the
size, baby grand pianos do not produce a sound
as rich and full as what concert grand's and parlor
grand's do. Due to the fact that the tone and sound
depends on the size of the soundboard and length
of the strings of a grand piano, baby grand pianos
are usually considered to be inferior to the other
sizes. Nevertheless, they are just ideal for people
who are looking for affordable pianos as well those
who have got limited space at home. Baby grand
pianos can fit easily in homes such as apartments
because of its more compact dimension.
