  • What piano are you playing on in this video?

  • @willemvdr12 Baldwin SD-10 Concert Grand

  • HI there. Your apresentation was very cool on piano brands but I have a question to ask you.

    I didnt see pleyel pianos in this video. I hear people say they are realy good but I dont know if they are american or european and whats your opinion on the pleyel pianos brand.

    P.S: Wich one you think is better, a pleyel, a bosendorfer or a steinway? if possible post your favourite one type XD

  • @urbano277 Pleyel piano company was founded in France at the end of the end of the 18th century. They currently produce several hundred pianos a year. Chopin played a Pleyel piano as did Debussy, Saint-Saëns, Ravel, de Falla and Stravinsky. The tone is typical of fine European pianos exhibiting a clear, focused sound which is more delicate than the American piano sound. The sound is much closer to Bösendorfer than to Steinway.

  • @urbano277 Depending upon the type of music being performed, each piano has its advantages. The clarity and delicacy of European pianos is wonderful for classical period music (Mozart and Haydn) particularly chamber music. Steinway is a great piano for concerto playing since it has the power to balance well with orchestra.

  • Ravenscroft Pianos Scottsdale, Arizona best piano only 2 made a year

  • I would like to ponder on how to make a piano...maybe make one in the future (I'm dreaming, but it is a good dream.)

  • @LivingPianosVideos What is your opinion on Charles Walter console uprights?

  • You do work for Yamaha don't you? If not, then you should. Unfortunately this information is sketchy at best and absolutely incorrect in places. No mention of Pearl River or Ritmuller either. Pay no attention to this skewed presentation.

  • What about Baldwin pianos?

    

  • @ligerx45 Bought One that I liked :)

  • @LivingPianosVideos I'm thinking of buying a second hand Yamaha G3, what you think?
