Ritmüller has been a pioneer in the field of piano manufacturing since its founding in 1795. Originally a producer of harps, lutes, and guitars, it eventually established itself as a household piano name by imparting premium raw materials, innovative design, and meticulous craftsmanship into its pianos. In fact, notable musicians such as Johannes Brahms and Joseph Joachim praised Ritmüller's rich "singing" tone. This tradition of excellence has been sustained through the years.
