I see the negative comments on this thread. I have a Pearl River piano purchased brand new 20 years ago. I purchased it because it was the only grand that I could afford at the time (I might have purchased an american or European brand had I found something that was affordable). It is used daily, tuned regularly, and lovingly maintained. And it still sounds great. Like with anything man made in this world, those things that are taken care of will last longer than those things that are not maintained.
I'm a piano teacher and I had a Pearl River Salon Grand (I think it was 6'1") with a boat tail back. It had a nice stiff action, and beautiful sound all through the scale. XLNT piano XOXO
So lovely! You play so beautifully. Thanks guys for all your videos. They are helping me in my research quite a bit!
I love this RUclips channel! Thanks for introducing this brand to me. I’ve always avoided Pearl River, thinking that it wasn’t even worth my consideration. This opens new options for me.
Best value for your money by far. The sound is beautiful, and the quality control is flawless. So underrated!
Thank you for this review. Very useful.
The young chang pianos remind me a lot of the bright Yamaha sound and these Ritmullers remind me of the darker mellow sound of Kawais.
A piano seller will basically try to sell a piano. They tend to follow the customer's emotion and budget to make the sale. My experience with a cheaper Chinese build piano is that it was not stable but subject to tonal variations and unreliable action as temperature and humidity varies throughout the year. So after less than a year I sold this China build grand for a Boston GP 193 ...
Glad u say Boston, I’m debating on getting one. How do u like it? I’ve got a new Hailun but not sure if I like.
@@ChoBee333The Boston turns out to be rock solid throughout all humidity ranges.
good video, thank you !
We have Pearl River grand in music school concert hall, uprights in some classes. They feel new and good, but after one week, it’s already out of tune. It doesn’t have stability. I noticed cosmetic soundboard problems on grand, it’s developing cracks. It’s less than 5 years old..
My name is Michelle, residing in Tucson. In doing research via RUclips videos on the Peral River piano brand, I came across this. I called the Alamo Music Center and spoke with Ted only this morning. Asking for advice and his review of the Pearl River piano, I felt his comments were of integrity, honesty, and stated that I will make an excellent choice in buying a Pearl River here in Tucson. His comments and review sealed my decision to buy a new Pearl River Piano today. I also asked him to identify the name of the piano piece he played in the above video. I hope to hear from him. Thanks, Ted! (Ted - I also play the accordion - as a little girl played duets with my Father - he on accordion and me on piano. A long time ago....)
Hi Michelle! There's three different pieces of music I use on this video. I'll put links here for your reference.
Enjoy your piano, stay in touch and thanks for watching and listening!!
I've bought a Ritmüller in the beginning of this year. And it's awesome and verry good quality and nice to play. Really enjoy it. Verry hard to beat this price point for their competitors with the quality. Really enjoy and like it. Really a Brand customers should try. :-)
You mean “awesome”. ‘Awful” is the opposite. :)
@@Fixmix78 Thanks. That's right. I mean awesome. Have corrected my mistake. :-)
Congratulations!
I guess im randomly asking but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my password. I would love any tips you can give me

The other thing to note is that Pearl River is overseen by famed piano engineer Stephan Mohler and designer Lothar Thomma. Having worked for C.Bechstein (Mohler) and Steingraeber (Thomma), and given the freedom along with a "blank cheque", to overhaul the lines, we are now seeing pianos echoing their heritage in Europe. We have been to the factory that closed in 2019, and it was impressive. I'm sure the recently opened one is even more so. Indeed, the Artist's series is exquisite. I also love how the group offers such a variety of options and price points with the brands offering such differing characteristics. Having said that, we have a 17-year-old Pearl River UP130T2 concert upright, and a slightly younger UP108D. They are both still going strong.
Thomma split with Pearl River years ago.
That Ritmuller sounds just amazing. Is it me, or does it not have a much brighter, more focused tone than the Essex? Both by Pearl River of course.
Essex is designed by Steinway, made by Pearl River.
@@benjaminsmith2287 Yes it is. However, the Essex may be 'designed' by Steinway but that's where the difference ends. It play nothing like a Steinway. I have played several at Steinway Hall in DFW. The Essex sounds pretty, plays nice, has no power and even less in the bass.
@@cldavis33 It's a much less expensive instrument. It's Steinway's budget line that they don't build themselves. I'm not the biggest fan of Essex or Boston, I'd prefer some other brands at that price point and maybe some Pearl River brands.
Very beautiful!
Here in Brazil, some stores are selling a Ritmuller GP series. I didn't find in the catologue.
Do you know it? Is it superior than the R line?
That's a good question. PR has recently adjusted the lines so that the R and GP Ritmullers are both in the classic line. Previously it was the R series / (aka performance line) and the GP series (and the UP/ GH lines). We still have older catalogs that show the R series and GP series separately. In terms of the pianos, the R line is only made up of two pianos - the R8 at 4'11 and the R9 at 5'3, while the GP series has the GP148R1, the GP160R1, the GP170R1, the GP188R1, the GP212R1, along with the GP275R1. So, if you wanted a larger grand piano from Ritmuller it would be a GP or the GH (Premium) line. I would say that the GP Classic Ritmuller line leans more towards the Pearl River Traditional (GP) line, (which is not at all a negative thing), and the Premium (GH) line towards the Kayserburg Heritage (GH) line (which is a fantastic thing). Ritmuller has also recently launched their Superior RS line - again, the RS has a limited number of piano sizes at the moment. So the lineup for Ritmuller is now: Classic (Including the R), Superior, Premium. To try and answer your question a bit more, I just don't think Pearl River will be putting them in the same category if they were not as good as the R. The only difference on my specification sheet is that the GP Ritmuller's have german felt in the hammers instead of Japanese on the R. It does seem confusing, however, with the pace of improvements, new launches, and lines, they have trimmed their offerings and consolidated some lines into one. It also depends on your market as to what may be available too. I hope that is helpful.
Hello, I bought a Pearl River V05 electronic piano, it happens that it lost the audio. possibly because you have pressed a button and misconfigured it. In short, I can't find a way to return it to its original factory settings. other brands have their manual to reset but this did not come to me and I do not know how to solve the problem, please support me. I will be very grateful.
Do the Ritmullers hold their tune well?
How about Yangtze River piano?
what ever happened to the PALATINO grand piano made by AXL
14:55 what's the name of the piece?
original arrangement of "FLYING" by the Beatles
What's the piece at 12:47?
sorry so long mate, it's original arrangement of "voices in the rain" by joe sample, very very beautiful composer/pianist, one of my fav's!!!
Ritmüller, not Ritmuller. Okay, I’ll show myself out… 🚪

Tell the truth, the pearl piano is not a good one.
well they do have good ones, too. My first piano was a pearl river/Yamaha, and i love it. It was later given to one of my nephew when he started learning to play, since i don't live with my parents anymore. I play digital pianos now, but i always miss the feeling of playing an acoustic piano.
The action of the piano may not last very long with stabilty. It has no life, that's why it's cheap.
It's simply sad. It's almost as if we are forced to buy chinese product. It's simply a question of time before they buy Steinway. After all, they have the biggest market.
And why is it sad? Didn't quite get ur point. A Chinese company should never produce good products?
@@johnchen5408 That's not the point. Nowhere I mentionned that Chinese product are not good. For a certain period of time, you had multiple piano manufacturer around the world. And I'm not talking of manufacturing plant but country brand. Yet, they brought their own philosophy and as a whole the product improved. Also, it's easier to improve a product when you are closer to the manufacturing level. If whatever country it is has an almost monopoly on the manufacturing, you limit the possibility for improvement and innovation. Pianos are mainly made of wood and I'm amaze to see certain Japanese Cedar, Germain spruce, Canadian Maple, Alaskan sitka for soundboard and I'm sure I'm missing some important one. Those choices where made because of local brand experimenting or sourcing locally. Fazioli built a piano with the intent to bring the Italian culture through it. I meant no offense.
i only buy canadian pianos. The golden age of pianos in the turn of the 20th century, the canadian and american pianos were the best ever made including the german ones as well.
