The Fazioli Company has produced grand and concert-grand pianos since 1981, when the company was founded by pianist and engineer Paolo Fazioli. Each instrument is individually handcrafted combining high quality materials with the finest workmanship and technology.

The Fazioli factory is located in Sacile, 60 Km (35 miles) northeast of Venice in the northeastern part of Italy. The area is renowned for an ancient and prestigious tradition in woodworking.

Fazioli Pianoforti was created towards the end of the seventies with the aim of starting the construction of a new professional line of grand pianos and concert pianos in Italy.

In 1978 a team of technicians, comprised of acoustic physicists, wood technologists, piano makers and pianists was formed around the pianist and engineer promoter of the enterprise, Paolo Fazioli. The purpose was to critically analyze the current position concerning the global manufacturing of pianos and to define the process for the construction of a conceptually new piano.

The main points of the new company's philosophy are:

* To produce grand and concert grand pianos exclusively, aiming to high quality and small numbers
* Not imitating any other existing pianos and creating an original sound
* To individually hand-craft each piano using time honored traditional methods combined with the latest technological advances
* To strive constantly to improve the piano by using cutting edge technology.

The first F183 (length 183 cm) prototype was built in June 1980. During the same year prototypes of other models followed F156 (length 156 cm), F228 (length 228 cm), F278 (length 278 cm).

In 2004 the new office area and the Fazioli Concert Hall were completed. The 2004 registered important deliveries and the production overcame the 100 units. Among the most important events Herbie Hancock started to use only Fazioli pianos both for concerts and recordings.

The Fazioli Concert Hall, conceived as an ideal place where testing the instrument, is also dedicated to concerts and recording sessions. It is the best proof of the great Fazioli determined commitment to the promotion of his product - the piano - and of the world to which it belongs - that of Art and Culture.
