This varies by brand and model.

Let us know what your piano is, please.

I know on my Kawai KG-1E Grand piano, you first have to reach under the piano to unscrew the key blocks on both sides of the keys.

From there I just use a Philips screwdriver to unscrew the screws on the fallboard to remove it.

Hopefully your piano design is that intuitive.

Try putting in a position between open and closed, then pull out towards you. If you have a soft close mechanism, it may slightly more complex. On my Yamaha I need to push in on the left side because of the spring then lift out.

All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
