This Classic series piano in traditional cabinet design is a standard stock instrument for us. It is a favourite for its responsive action and great dynamic diversity, finished in black polyester.
International pianist Alberto Reyes test played the complete range of Schimmel pianos at Peregrine’s Pianos for journalist Claire Jackson. This is from her article “Speaking volumes” which subsequently appeared in the Pianist Magazine:
“‘This is another world’, says Reyes, as phrases flow from his fingers with ease. ‘The action is much more responsive; it’s close to what professionals need to make a clean transition from the practice room to the stage. You can hear that my ornaments sound better all of a sudden! The instrument is allowing me more precision. The tone is richer and there seems to be more power. Now we are beginning to talk about a real possibility for a professional pianist.’ He begins to play Chopin’s Ballade No.1 in G minor, which becomes a performance as the pianist loses himself in the sound. ‘This is a piano that really inspires me’, he confirms. ‘I love the long tone in the middle range. For an upright, this is fantastic.’
