Upright Pianos

Proudly Serving the Mohawk Valley and Central New York

Center Stage Pianos was founded in 2010 by Douglas Kraus, Owner, Piano Technician, and Rebuilding Specialist. After many years of experience with other piano businesses, Doug's goal was to create a piano store that offered the Mohawk Valley and Central New York a complete line of piano services. We have customers from Syracuse, Rome, Oneida, Herkimer, Old Forge, Hamilton, Norwich, and all points between. Our inventory consists of a selection of used pianos. We follow up every sale with professional moving by our fully insured and experienced movers. We offer tuning and service by our reliable technicians. We also provide other related services.

Doug took time, care, and attention when visiting my home for a tuning. He explained what he thought was best, and to a novice like me, the info was invaluable. My piano sounds great and I’m motivated to play, a testament to the overwhelmingly positive experience I had. I would recommend Center Stage to anyone who needs piano work.

I cannot stress enough how nice, helpful, and professional Doug & Suzanne were throughout the buying process. Doug was also extremely efficient in transporting the piano to my apartment. The piano itself is just gorgeous. It plays & feels amazing! We're all so lucky to have Center Stage here in Utica :)

I bought a restored 120-year-old Boardman & Gray piano from Center Stage in 2019 just before they moved locations. I loved the low pressure sales approach and ended up with a great instrument. Doug has been great about presenting the history about this particular instrument as well.
