Our Story

Why playing the piano shouldn't hurt.

I've been a concert pianist for years. But I have a confession: I always struggled with the size of the keyboard. It was just a tiny bit too big for my hands.

For years, I thought it was my fault. I thought I just needed to practice more or stretch further. But then I realized: I wasn't alone.

That's why I created DreamPlay One. It isn't just a "smaller keyboard". It's a professional instrument designed to fit your hands, not fight them.

Benefits

Why DreamPlay One?

Reach More, Strain Less

The keys are slightly narrower (15/16ths or 7/8ths of standard). This means you can finally reach octaves and large chords without stretching until it hurts.

University Approved

We use the official "DS Standard" sizes. These are the exact same sizes used by top universities worldwide. You are playing on a professional standard, not a toy.

Concert Hall Sound

We didn't sacrifice quality for comfort. We partnered with top sound engineers to ensure the DreamPlay One sounds as rich and grand as it feels.

Play Anywhere

It's lightweight and compact. Take your music with you, wherever you go.

Sizing

Choose Your Perfect Fit

DS5.5 — "Small" Size

Designed for pianists with hands under 7.6 inches. This size allows players in "Zone A" to play octaves and 9ths with ease, and even the occasional 10th interval comfortably.

DS6.0 — "Medium" Size

Designed for pianists with hands between 7.6 and 8.5 inches. This size allows players in "Zone B" to play octaves and 9ths with ease, and the occasional 10th without strain.

The Creator

Meet the Founder

Concert pianist turned entrepreneur, building the keyboard I always wished existed.

My Story

I've been a concert pianist for years, performing at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and venues around the world. But there's something most people never saw: I was constantly fighting against the piano.

My hands span just under 8.5 inches. That meant many traditional pieces were difficult, sometimes impossible, for me to play comfortably. No matter how much I practiced, I felt like the instrument wasn't built for me.

So I asked myself: "What if the piano could be designed to fit the pianist, instead of the other way around?"

That's where DreamPlay was born.

The Problem

The Problem I Wanted to Solve

Most pianos are designed for large hand spans, at least 8.5 inches. But 87% of women and 24% of men fall short of that.

That means strain, tension, and frustration. I know because I lived it.

The Solution: DreamPlay

DreamPlay is the instrument I always wished I had: a professional keyboard designed to fit your hands.

Risks & Challenges

Every crowdfunding campaign involves some risk, but we have mitigated the biggest ones already:

✅ Prototype is finished

We aren't guessing; the piano works.

✅ Manufacturer secured

We have partnered with a reputable factory.

✅ Experienced Team

We know music and logistics.

The Production Reality

1. Tooling (90 Days): The most complex part is creating the steel molds for our custom 15/16th size keys. This takes approximately 3 months. We cannot rush this without risking quality.

2. Delivery Date (August 2026): We have built a 2-month buffer into our timeline to account for potential ocean freight delays or customs congestion.

We promise 100% transparency. You will be updated every single month with photos from the factory floor until the DreamPlay One is in your living room.

We are working overtime to make sure you get your DreamPlay One within the estimated time frame. If we cannot hit the deadline, you have the option of getting your 100% of your money back, or keeping your reservation spot.

Refund Policy

Not sure if you will like it? We offer a 90-day, 100% full refund policy (with return shipping covered).

Every crowdfunding campaign comes with risks, but we've done our homework. We have a working prototype and have partnered with a reputable manufacturer.

However, unforeseen delays can happen in manufacturing and shipping. We promise to keep you updated every step of the way.
