I walked into a Kitengela Bol pianos showroom branch and little did i know i was going to bump into a masterpiece.
I tried all pianos in the room. Finally i sat at this grand. My first thought was how beautiful it was just sitting in the room. I played the first two notes to Chopin's Ballade. The Cs and the sound... Was rich and warm almost like playing a concert grand.
This is the kind of instrument that would make you excited. The vibration goes through the keyboard to your body as you play making you and your music one.
Playing further into the adrenaline filled passages you can actually feel its less tiresome to play fast notes and chords due to the kind of response from the action. I could bet the piano almost played most of the notes for me.
The pianos dynamics are diverse. The opening passage of Chopin's scherzo no. 2 could prove it. Piano isn't hard to find and ye the instrument was loud enough from the upper register to the extreme bass.
This was truly an experience. I'd use this piano for a concert anytime.
