@TheFutureIsAtheist: It would be better to keep your “future atheist” agenda out of TED talks about non-religious topics. People also waste money for huge cars, unhealthy food, weapons and so on — so what?

the disclavier is a great piano from yamaha, but i think it's to stupid to attempt to recreate by computer the human feeling of big dude like Glenn Gould, think about doing the same for Hendrix or Django Reihart it's realy stupid.
by the way if a guy played midi data on today music the performance is reflect what he played, but only if is not try to cut and past the data ^^

We are inside Glenn Gould's body...

Great product, bad "presenter". He should stay at the showroom

i have the zenph reperformance of this music..its a sacd in surround the 1955 recording..whats odd is that in this video the looks to somethng similar to an application i have..which it pretty cheap..

brilliant invention,but to properly recreate
the original sound it will need the original
make and model of instrument the pianists used.............and these will have to be voiced etc in the same way they were, say in 1930. Also for greater
realism it will good to re-create the period sound of the old recording equipment............
Cortot on a Yamaha is just not nice!..........
it needs a 1930's Pleyel or Bechstein
concert grand, with properly voiced original hammers.

I believe he said he works for Sony whereas the piano is manufactured and sold exclusively by Yamaha. Perhaps you should actually try to trust people; it is actually a brilliant device and as a sound engineer he is obviously very keen to tell you about it. The genius of the Diskclavier is immense.

Does anyone else see how ironic it is to listen to this on Youtube?
Even if the quality of the sound were achieved, it would not be realized by anyone listening to it at the output quality of youtube audio...
