Upright pianos, also called vertical pianos, have upright rectangular bodies and strings that run vertically. They’re therefore more compact than grand pianos—and often, though not always, less expensive—which makes them a popular purchase for home use. Uprights are widely used as rehearsal and practice instruments in churches, community centers, schools and universities. While many people believe that upright pianos are naturally inferior to grand pianos, the truth is that the sound produced by any piano—grand or upright—is a result of the quality of materials, design of the instrument, and capability of the piano maker.
