Nord Grand 88-Note Digital Piano

By utilising the benchmark Nord Piano library and adding an exclusive new keybed, the Grand firmly reinforces Nord's commitment to producing the very best piano playing experience.

The Grand Experience

Grand's new Kawai Responsive Keybed captures the movements of the hammers (rather than the keys) with exceptional precision, delivering the smooth and natural feel of an acoustic grand piano.
