Our Story

The People Behind Ressona

Behind every instrument on our floor and every note played in our hall is a craftsman’s hands and a musician’s ear.

Manuel Buri

Founder of Ressona | Piano Technician & Restorer

Manuel Buri is a piano technician, restorer, and the founder of Ressona, a Manhattan-based piano boutique and musical space dedicated to fine instruments, craftsmanship, and artistic expression.

With extensive hands-on experience in piano restoration and rebuilding, Manuel specializes in the technical care, restoration, and preparation of fine grand pianos. His approach combines traditional craftsmanship, technical knowledge, and a deep respect for the history and character of each instrument.

Through Ressona, Manuel has developed a space that brings together the worlds of piano craftsmanship and live music. His vision extends beyond piano sales and restoration, creating a place where musicians, artists, and audiences can connect through performances, rehearsals, recordings, and artistic collaborations.

For Manuel, a piano is more than an instrument. It is a combination of history, engineering, craftsmanship, and musical expression. This philosophy is at the heart of Ressona.

Ressona reflects his commitment to preserving the art of the piano while creating new opportunities for music to resonate.
