Where should you Put an Upright Piano in a Room?

Where you place a piano in a room has a profound effect on its voice. With the right position, even a modest upright can sound fuller and more resonant than you might expect.

It may seem natural to tuck an upright against the wall—its back is flat, after all, and not much to look at. But sound travels from the soundboard at the back, and pressing it flush against a wall can stifle the instrument. Leaving just a few inches of space allows the tone to breathe, reflecting off the wall and filling the room with music.

If you’re willing to be bolder, try positioning the piano as a divider within the room. While this reveals its back, a simple fabric or panel can turn what was once hidden into part of the décor. The payoff is a clearer, more expansive sound.

In the end, the placement of a piano is not just about looks or convenience—it is about unlocking the voice of the instrument. A piano’s tone depends as much on the room it lives in as on the instrument itself. Experiment, listen, and let the space guide you.
