  it again another way to play softly so    you have some very creative ways for    more delicate playing you know in an age     where a lot of acoustic brands are    trying to come up with more and more    power more and more volume this is a    very unique approach now there's one    more really cool thing about this piano    and I want to show you and it's actually    has to do with the lid the lid is made   of an interesting material actually got    in the middle an aluminum honeycomb so    what does that mean it is much lighter    than your     traditional concert grand lid now I'm a    small guy and even I have to struggle    whenever I have to get a nine-foot lid    up wanna harm this makes it so easy to    lift up and set up so another unique and    one of the interesting properties about    this lid from what I've been told is    that it actually does a better job of    reflecting audio waves or sound so again    it's kind of hard to tell in this space   yamaha p115 vs p105  it's a lot of carpeting and it's not    really a concert setting but there is a    lot of sound that you can get out of    this now let's just listen to a little    bit of some Schubert I think Schubert is    where this kind of soft pedal playing    this or Dino playing really shines no     Schubert himself loved his play L in his    playoff I actually had a chance to plant    one has a sustain pedal but then for    different levels of soft incredible you    press the each of these pedals would get    softer and softer and softer and    apparently this is the sound that    Schubert loved this is a piano that    actually comes very close to    approximating the kind of muted muffle    sound that you can get now one other    really quick thing for the mozart rail    before we go and hear a little bit of    this piano what would you need a mozart     rail for well one of the things i    thought of immediately was the fact that    you know the concert grant it's very    easy as a collaborative pianist or their    company to overwhelm the soloist    that's exactly so many accompanist that    just you know you wish they would back     down a little bit and let the soloist be    heard switch on the mozart grill you've    got an instant balancer making your    accompanist play a lot softer and it    letting your soul will shine out a lot    one that's one application I can see    being very very practical for the mozart    rail over here so anyway let's listen to    a little bit    I hope you enjoyed that overview of the    e 272 concert grand by shinegreymon    Susannah magnificent instrument with    some really unique really unique    features that I'm really enjoying a lot    of fun anyway    I'm Hugh sung for piano buyer calm thank    you for watching
