A grand piano is considered better by many due to its ability to produce a fuller, richer sound compared to upright pianos. This is because the grand piano’s horizontal soundboard, which is larger than that of an upright piano, is better able to resonate and project the sound. Additionally, the grand piano’s mechanism, also known as the action, is often positioned in a more efficient manner for the hammers to strike the strings, resulting in a more responsive and faster touch. The larger size of a grand piano also allows for a greater range of tonal variety due to the longer strings, which can vibrate at lower frequencies. However, the superior sound quality comes at the cost of space and price. Grand pianos are much larger and more expensive than upright pianos.
