Fazioli...anyone who knows anything about handmade instruments knows there's no competition between an italian piano handmade by a musical genius and on overrated mass-produced piano

[IGA000TAKA]

FAZIOLI is an obedient piano to the touch of the keyboard.

However, it is a difficult piano to emit the sound the same as the desire.

@NOSEhow2LIV Actually, anybody reading this thread can realize that it's you who is incoherent in your comments and it's you who is obsessed with brand & marketing.

I just told you that an italian name on a piano doesn't add value to it in today's globalized world.

Many chinese hand-made pianos are far superior than fazioli AND guess what, they are more economic! I'm sorry but I'm not impressed by fazioli. I'd never pay thousounds of dollars for an italian name.

Good luck!

@Ysacoelfua Not pushing anything,just enjoying playing!You seem obsessed with"brand"&Marketing,rather than music.A fine piano speaks for itself;i've sometimes found unexpected treasures,little known.

I also play a truly hand-made concert piano in China,constructed carefully by a good friend in Nanjing.

Seeing your obvious vendetta,for whatever reason,against Fazioli,and your incoherent statements &assumptions,there's little more to discuss.

All the best.

steinway better by so far , richer bass and clearer sound

[Ysacoelfua]

@NOSEhow2LIV No matter how hard you and mr fazioli try to push it. Being an italian handmade piano doesn't mean much in today's globalized world. Fantastic hand made pianos are being made in China as we speak.

I'm sorry, but having an italian signature on your piano does not add value to it anymore.

@Ysacoelfua I'm a regular at NAMM and Frankfart since early 80's,(and others,such as Shanghai... in recent years).I've played all sorts,and many vintage & restored Europeans as well.I like & appreciate a fine piano,but i love music even better.In my opinion,Fazioli is an exceptional piano of our times.OK,you don't like it,fair enough,but you are too extreme and don't make much sense on this subject.I don't "like"Yamahaha but still admit its reliable qualities &respect opinions.

[Ysacoelfua]

@NOSEhow2LIV do you have an idea of how many brands of hand-made pianos exist? Visit a NAMM Show or Frankfurt Musikmesse. Fazioli is just one more among the crowd. That's all.

[NOSEhow2LIV]

@Ysacoelfua Oddly enough,i would have said that marketing& PR is one of Fazioli's weak points!Certainly it's nothing like on the scale or the budget of Yamaha or Steinway.

I'd also say it's deluded to consider that mankind has not accelerated in his knowledge in so many fields of invention& manufacture:why should Fazioli,or anyone today crawl along as if in the 1800's?He has fine materials & up to date competence.

But stay with Yamaha&Petrof if you prefer.

@whitneypowell1 The Steinway has a powerful touch and a very rich sound.

The Bösendorfer has a soft touch, easy to control, and a sound as rich as the Steinway's at least.

@whitneypowell1 The fact that Fazioli is handmade does not mean it is better. I've played on a Bösendorfer, a Steinway and a Fazioli. And I can say that the Fazioli was the worst. It's sound is poor compared the Steinway (or the Bösendorfer). I admit, it has a very soft touch, a TOO soft touch, so it's difficult to create rhe desired sound. Steinway has a much more powerful touch (if you know what I mean). So, conclusion : Fazioli is an extremely overpriced brand that lacks at musicality.
