As the founder of Moving Classics, I’m always on the lookout for projects that
make life easier for musicians. One initiative I deeply admire is PianoMe, a
platform that has addressed a surprisingly universal issue: the lack of flexible
and affordable rehearsal spaces. While musicians continue to face challenges in
finding suitable rehearsal spaces, PianoMe is steadily building a vibrant
rehearsal-sharing community—offering real support where it’s most needed.
PianoMe was born from a simple yet powerful idea—what if existing spaces like
music schools, churches, and private studios could rent out unused time slots to
musicians, without the hassle of complex administration? The team behind
PianoMe didn’t stop at the idea. They took it further by handling payment
processing, cancellations, receipts, and even promotional features like QR codes
for events—all included for users.

Many musicians already share their rehearsal rooms, often due to a shortage of
available spaces or financial considerations. However, this usually happens
through small, scattered ad platforms with limited reach and poor user
experience.
These platforms tend to share common drawbacks: confusing listings, no
integrated payment system, no reviews from previous users, and a lack of
transparency. Bookings often require phone calls or private messages, and
there’s little to no guidance for musicians looking to make informed decisions.
As a result, finding an affordable and suitable rehearsal room quickly remains a
frustrating process—especially for short-term or spontaneous needs. Whether
you’re traveling, can’t commit to a long-term lease, or just need a last-minute
space, PianoMe changes the game.

PIANOME PROVIDES THE EXACT FEATURES
MUSICIANS AND SPACE PROVIDERS HAVE LONG
NEEDED.

Users can view detailed listings and get a sense of each space in advance:
-How big is the room?
-What instruments are available?
-What equipment is included?
-How many people can rehearse at once?
-What’s the ideal use for the space?
-What do other musicians say about their experience?
Some listings even include audio samples of the instruments, offering a deeper
sense of what to expect.
One of PianoMe’s biggest contributions is how it brings underutilized spaces to
life. Music schools with empty rooms after hours or on weekends, private
musicians with spare rehearsal time, and other unused facilities now have a
platform to connect with those in need. This not only increases the number of
available rooms, but also benefits the broader music community.

ARE ONLY REHEARSAL ROOMS IN GERMANY OFFERED ON PIANOME FOR RENT?

The range of available rehearsal rooms appears to be relatively manageable. At
the time of my analysis, there were 199 active listings. In addition to “classic”
rooms equipped with pianos and grand pianos, the platform also offers studios,
rooms with drum kits, band rehearsal spaces, and smaller concert halls that can
be rented by the hour.
Many major German cities are already represented. The overall offering seems to
be growing steadily, with most listings currently concentrated in large
metropolitan areas. It’s worth noting positively that the platform appears to be
gaining traction in other European cities as well.
Rehearsal spaces are already available for rent in countries such as Belgium, the
Netherlands, the UK, Switzerland and other European locations, as well as in
some U.S. cities.

The encouraging part is that these spaces are not just listed — they are actually
being rented. This insight comes from feedback shared by musicians who have
booked rehearsal rooms via PianoMe.
According to the platform’s FAQ section, most rehearsal rooms are currently
located in major European cities, but the team is actively working to expand the
selection further.

MY SUMMARY

What I find especially inspiring is how they’ve stayed committed to supporting
musicians over maximizing profits. They’ve chosen not to take on investors,
allowing them to keep the focus on usability, fairness, and community-building.
With customizable cancellation policies, a clear dashboard for renters and hosts,
and a centralized booking system, PianoMe is streamlining a previously chaotic
process.
The impact? Music schools are now digitizing their rental systems and creating
new revenue streams. Professional musicians—some internationally known—are
using the platform to find quiet, neutral practice spaces. At first glance, the name
PianoMe might suggest it’s just for pianists. But the platform is open to all types
of musicians: singers, bands, choirs, and even film crews are booking spaces for
everything from rehearsals to recordings. Whether you’re a beginner, student,
teacher, returning artist, singer, band, or instrumentalist, the diversity of listings
and reviews makes it easy to find a space that fits your needs.
PianoMe not only saves time and reduces emissions by cutting down on travel,
but it also makes better use of existing resources. It’s a sustainable, smart tool in
our evolving music ecosystem.
I’m truly impressed by their work and encourage musicians of all levels to
explore what PianoMe has to offer. https://piano.me/
