Expanded Information:
YAMAHA YAMAHA (JAPAN) Yamaha's name comes from the surname of the company's founder, Toranami Yamaha (Yamaha), who founded it in 1887. Familiar with Western science and technology from a young age, Yamaha initially repaired medical equipment and also repaired organs, which eventually led to the birth of the Yamaha brand. Confident in his business prospects, Yamaha created the Yamaha Organ Company against all odds.
Over a hundred years ago, a young entrepreneur named Toranami Yamaha set out to make high-quality pipe organs and founded the Yamaha Corporation. Soon, the company was not only producing Japan's first pianos, but also gaining recognition overseas, and in 1904, Yamaha pianos and organs were awarded the Grand Prix d'Honneur at the St. Louis World's Fair.
