}}Stuart & Sons is an Australian manufacturer of handcrafted grand pianos established in 1990 as Stuart & Sons Terra Australis Pty Limited. The founder is Wayne Stuart. The company later evolved and formed a partnership with Albert Music. Stuart & Sons primarily use Australian timbers for construction. The company is based in Newcastle in New South Wales.[1]

The Dutch-Australian pianist Gerard Willems used a Stuart & Sons piano when recording the complete piano sonata cycle of Ludwig van Beethoven during 1999 and 2000.[2]

Stuart & Sons has created a grand piano with 14 more keys than are found on a standard piano, for a total of 102 keys or eight and one half octaves.[3] A model with 20 extra keys for a total of 108 or nine octaves was built in 2018.[4]
