Roland kiyola
Artisan digital piano combines hand-crafted solid wood cabinet and SuperNATURAL modelling technology
KIYOLA are exceptional contemporary pianos made in Japan. They represent a collaboration between two historic companies with years of mastery and a shared ethos of meticulous creativity. Both models integrate the latest Roland piano technologies housed within cabinets carefully crafted by Karimoku. Combining analog and digital, tradition and cutting-edge, KIYOLA exemplifies wa (和), the Japanese concept of harmony.
Stands out from the crowd with Karimoku hand-crafted all-wood cabinet
KIYOLA represents the longstanding collaboration between Roland and the renowned artisans of Karimoku, expert Japanese wood furniture manufacturers since 1940. Featuring natural cabinets and inspired craftsmanship, these distinctive instruments will blend seamlessly into your home. With Roland’s Piano Reality Modeling technology and PHA-50 key action, KIYOLA provides an immersive sonic experience and authentic playing feel. Available in two cabinet styles and five finishes—with an ergonomically designed bench included—these pianos bring a touch of understated elegance to any space.
A Tapestry of Tones
Fill your home with the complex tonal colors of a world-class piano. Fine-tune tonal details to achieve your perfect sound, from timbre to resonance and string tuning. Advanced Piano Reality Modeling articulates every dynamic expression, making it easy to pour your full emotion into every performance.
​The LX-6 offers an elegant upright look with a touch panel and screen that can be blacked out to maintain a seamless appearance. Acoustic pianos demand specific conditions for the best sound and are difficult to transport. The LX-6 sounds great in any room and ships in two boxes for easy installation, from basements to upper-level floors.
Hand-built by masters of traditional Japanese wood crafting
Karimoku is a Japanese furniture manufacturer founded in 1940 out of admiration for the serene beauty of natural wood.

Renowned for its meticulous production process, the company combines advanced machinery with expert hand-finishing techniques—polishing, coating, and assembling each piece with exceptional care.

KIYOLA models feature Hikimono and Sashimono woodworking styles, which play a key role in shaping their distinctive forms. Each instrument has a unique grain pattern with organic color changes that evolve over time.
Ergonomic piano bench supports your posture and protects your spine
The included KIYOLA bench was developed with as much care and attention as the piano itself. Its distinctive arched shape promotes good posture, while the wide sitting area distributes weight evenly, making playing a joy.
