The Academy uprights and grands of the Bechstein brand are an alternative to the outstanding but more costly pianos of the Residence line. They have been tailored to the needs of conservatories and are available on a smaller budget. Although not designed to perform in large concert halls, these instruments are still made to satisfy professional demands. These pianos are powerful enough for performances in chamber music halls and private venues, and they are sturdy enough to withstand the playing of the most vigorous music students.
Differences between the acoustic assemblies of the two lines are found in the selection and combination of materials as well as in the crafting process.
