Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

Thank you for your kind words!

Thanks so much for your kind words! Yes, we truly are passionate and dedicated to recording our pianos as accurately as possible. Thanks again for tuning in!!

Yes! Derick is an amazing pianist that definitely knows how to showcase an instrument's best attributes. Thanks for watching!!

Definitely a fair observation! It does certainly sound that way in the recording. One thing to note- the audio was recorded using a basic shotgun microphone; so, it may not have been the absolute most accurate representation of the piano's tones. Definitely check out our newer videos though, as we are now exclusively using professional studio mics for our audio. Thanks for watching!!

Yes, great observation! And thanks very much for tuning in!

Thanks for tuning in!

Definitely! At over 6 feet in length, this model can definitely extend and generate those lower notes with tremendous clarity. Thanks so much for tuning in!!

I wondered about that too. My piano teacher told me a long time ago: On the piano, once the sound is there you cannot do anything except listen to it slowly dieing or killing it immediately. The only movement relevant is the one that releases the damper. So don‘t move.

@user-tb9lx1oz9n Pianists often add extra movement, even when it doesn't affect the sound directly. While piano notes decay linearly, these small movements help manage tension and maintain engagement between chord tones. In sustained pieces, relying on gravity to hold keys once already pressed down conserves energy and prevents unnecessary tension so these checks are to remind the hands, fingers, and arms to relax and loosen up! -Derick

@Kref3 That is correct! The notes WILL decay but as a musician that doesn’t mean you can’t listen between the notes. To create the illusion of smooth phrases and dynamics, musicians need to work around the fact that sound sustains and decays linearly (at least for a piano). A piece like this has longer, drawn out chords. And to play them connected, you need to imagine slight crescendos or decrescendos alongside the actual decay in order shape the phrase convincingly and cohesively. -Derick

Agreed! Thanks so much for tuning in!!

Thanks for watching!

Yes! Recordings from this day utilize all the same gear. That being said, the tone is definitely subjective! Definitely can't go wrong with any of those pianos though 👍

Thanks for watching!

If you have to ask the cost of a Bösendorfer then you cannot afford it.. stunning instruments. I am also a big Fazioli fan.. not a player, just know what i like to hear

😂 This piano can have that effect! Thanks for tuning in!

This model is definitely one of the nicest in our inventory! Thanks so much for watching!

And that’s not even their 130cm model 😉

Thanks so much! Yes, Derick is multi-talented! While he is currently studying CS and maintaining/building our websites, he also went to the prestigious Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) where he studied piano. We're lucky to have him on the team!

Yes! Thanks for pointing that out!!

Haha yes, Yamaha pianos can be on the brighter side! This C5 Grand is actually 6'7" in length. A concert-level piano, without the concert-level price tag! Thanks for watching!!

It doesn't get much better than a C 234 from Bechstein! Thanks for watching!!

Whoops! Thanks for the correction 👍

Thanks so much! This C 234 is definitely one of the more impressive pianos in our inventory. Thanks again for tuning in!

Yes, this SF-10 is a bit older and is obviously in a different class than an actual Model B. But as you mentioned, it is just a few tweaks away from being a really close competitor in tone. Great observation!

Yes! Now that would be something! Thanks for watching!

That's so cool! One day we'd love to tour their factory. And yes, the pianos sound incredible!

I too think they're the best.

@@cioccolateriaveneziana Definitely up there with some of the finest pianos in the world! Thanks for watching!

I have a Bosendorfer 225, the piano demonstrated here, and, yes, the sound is the most pure of any piano I have ever played. It does not have the dynamic capability of a Bechstein, which was my previous piano, but for intimate situations like my living room, you can't beat the Bosendorfer.

Wow, that's awesome! Definitely can't go wrong with either!

Agreed!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for tuning in!

Thanks for watching!

Great observation! Yes, this one definitely has those characteristics. One thing I neglected to mention though was that unlike Derick's other demos, we actually used instrument mics for this recording (x2 Shure SM57's). The other recordings were done using a Rode shotgun mic, which definitely contributes to the difference in tones. We will make sure to specify which microphones are used for future videos. And yes, Derick is tremendous! Thanks!

Cool observation! Thanks for tuning in!

Yes! That's what 7+ feet will do for ya! And it definitely helps when it's a premium brand that was just serviced by a master technician too 😀

Since it was built in 1920, would the white keys still ivory ?

@@baogiobiettuongtu This model has since been restored; so, no ivory keys.

thank you - I initially thought because the light therefore the whitekey is not ivory . Makesense now@@kimspiano-newandusedkawaiy9026

Thanks for watching!

Wow, that's high praise! Thanks so much for tuning in!!
