Maestro - Thank you for playing the B Minor Prelude.

I like to play a variety of instruments and a friend of mine gave me this piano for free when they had to move to a different place but couldnt take it with them. This is a beautiful instrument.

I’ve heard of the C1X and GB1K, but not the GC1. This is unusual for this channel to hear a brand new Yamaha. Can hear how it’s not played in yet. Love hearing Robert play such a variety of pianos.

I have this model and as I improve musically, my appreciation for this instrument increases.

Cool! I have this exact model also voiced warmer and I highly recommend it. My teacher visited me at home and also said the tone is very nice.

So beautiful. Thanks for playing it for us.

amazing that its price is less than a schimmel upright, just beautifull

Great to always see you and hear you play - as a Yamaha C3 owner a 1987 jazz player here - I can tell you without hesitation a Yamaha is absolutely stunning - recently had Evon Brunner regulate, action and voice it softer and the results are on par with Faust in westchester $100k CFX - so don’t hesitate this piano is STUNNING sound and look - great video

Seeing and hearing Robert play on a 2022 Yamaha baby grand made in Japan when he usually plays on 30+ year old American or European pianos adds variety. Regarding the CFX, Yamaha incorporated sound engineering from that into smaller pianos in their line, right down to the C1X and GC1.

Yamaha has gone to a more of a sprayed out sound now that subtly changes colors but maintaining clarity and precision. It's a lot different than the type of cut-through sound they used to be known for. So, some of the pianos coming out of the factory are either neutral or a bit warm. They'll brighten up in time because the hammers will harden but their hammers are different than they used to be and not as hard. The piano does sound young and will open up with more playing. GC-1 is meant to be more affordable than the CX series which is like a CF series in training.

Love it!

You did such a nice job with Mozart

That's impressive! I'm learning from your demos, Thank you!

I have a GC-1 from 1977 and it never looses its tune, although I get it checked every 2 or 3 years.

The GC1 did not exist in 1977.

Wow !

I’m guessing this is an evolution of the GH-1

How much?

Hey Rob will an asian made piano hold up for decades in US? Nice video!!!

It depends on which Asian made piano. Kawais and Yamahas are proven to be workhorses. That's a big difference to other brands. Can't put all Asian pianos in the same category.

You are not supposed to use padel on Mozart 😊

You can use the pedal in anything. You just have to know how to use it and when to use it. The combination of pedal with good legato is where the magic begins. That’s what distinguishes an artist like Horowitz from the rest.

Mozart's piano had a lever operated with the knee which did exactly the same thing as the sustain pedal on a modern piano.
