Grand pianos are seen as the pinnacle of all instruments, and are widely associated with the glamorous jazz scene, and classical recitals.

Grand pianos are a relatively modern technology in piano design. Furthermore, they have proven to be the preferable design of choice for most of the world's top pianists and enthusiasts. They differ from the other major classification of upright pianos in a number of ways, largely relating to configuration and size. The grand piano strings horizontally, and benefits from the force of gravity in its mechanism. Additionally, its sprawling structure allows for a fuller sound to resonate through the bridge, giving an impressive tonal distinction between grands and most upright models. Uprights on the other hand strive to be tight and compact, whilst also affording similar tonal quality. Of course, something has to give and with uprights, it’s the overall sound quality which is simply non-comparable to that of a grand. However, the compressed mechanism on the upright is beneficial as a small and compact instrument for practice and smaller public recitals. - Acoustic Or Electric Guitar: Which Should You Get?
