Athena™ NK5.5-201: The Essential Narrow Key Piano
Play with Power. Practice with Comfort.
 
The Athena NK5.5-201 is an approachable entry into the world of narrow-key digital pianos. Designed specifically for pianists who find traditional 6.5" octave keyboards limiting, this model features a 5.5-inch octave across 88 graded hammer-action keys. By matching the keyboard to the hand—rather than forcing the hand to adapt—the 201 makes playing easier, healthier, and more accessible from the very first lesson.

Inspired by our groundbreaking Flagship 301, The Essential 201 brings the ergonomic benefits of narrow-key design to a wider audience. Students, teachers, and adult learners can finally experience:

Musical Focus: Shift your attention away from physical limitations and back to your musicality.
 
Quality Sound & Authentic Feel
The Athena NK5.5-201 offers a warm, musical piano tone paired with a responsive graded hammer action. This combination makes it an excellent choice for developing technique, musical expression, and confidence in any home or teaching studio.
