Fiona Lau, pianist and music educator, visited the factory in Braunschweig with Peregrine's pianos. Her subsequent article in Music Teacher Magazine described her findings on these pianos:
“The culmination of our tour was being allowed to play practically every piano in the Schimmel range, from the entry level and school or studio pianos through to fine professional instruments. The quality was apparent: the uprights had the tonal colour and volume usually only associated with a grand piano and the Konzert and Classic pianos responded beautifully to the demands of the Romantic piano repertoire.”
The C116T is suited for all ability ranges, an inspiration for beginners and advanced players alike. As with the other Classic series pianos, this has a Schimmel designed Renner-made action for ultimate precision playing. Tonally, as one has come to expect from Schimmel, there is a great depth of sound, a long sustain and the opportunity for nuances of sound.
