Our Story
Shigeru Kawai was born on July 28, 1922 in the Shizuoka Prefecture of Japan. He entered the piano business as a young man in 1946. Although he was a member of the Kawai family, Shigeru spent his early years learning the piano building process as a regular worker. He put in long hours laboring diligently in the manufacturing area, sometimes sleeping overnight in the factory as an expression of his dedication to the craft. He loved the work so much that, in later life, he would often remark, “Creating pianos was the greatest job I ever had!”
“Koichi taught Shigeru the “methods of origin” by which pianos are built entirely by hand. He would often say, “As long as you are building pianos, you should strive to build the finest ones in the world.” Shigeru listened attentively to Koichi’s every word.”

My Shigeru SK-7 has given me a whole new level of expression, control, tone & clarity that I never dreamed was possible. I am undoubtedly a better composer and performer because of this world class instrument!
The love of music-making runs
deep in those who pursue the esteemed
rank of Master Piano Artisan.
For some, it is a visceral sense
of calling that inspires this
unique quest for mastery.
