Grand Piano Factory<\/h1>\n<p><em>Though Kawai&#8217;s size and production grew steadily, Shigeru Kawai never wavered from his father&#8217;s overriding concern for quality and ever-improving piano performance. It was this unceasing desire to perfect the art of the piano that inspired Shigeru&#8217;s crowning achievement&#8230; the Ryuyo Grand Piano Facility.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Opened in 1980, the 300,000 square-foot plant was built at a cost of $50 million. Ryuyo embodies the perfect &#8220;marriage&#8221; of hand-craftsmanship and advanced technology. It is equipped with the most sophisticated piano-building tools available and is staffed by the most knowledgeable and experienced piano personnel in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The world-renowned EX Concert Grand Pianos are hand-built here in the famed Shigeru Kawai Research and Development Laboratory by Kawai&#8217;s finest Master Piano Artisans. Today, the Ryuyo facility is universally regarded as one of the most advanced and efficient piano facilities in the world.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":383,"menu_order":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-blank.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-389","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=389"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/389\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2039675,"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/389\/revisions\/2039675"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kawaius.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
