  • Piano Manufacturing an Art and a Craft
    Nikolaus W. Schimmel Piano Manufacturing An Art and a Craft Gesa Lücker (Concert pianist and professor of piano, University for Music and Drama, Hannover) Nikolaus W. Schimmel Piano Manufacturing An Art and a Craft Since time immemorial, music has accompanied mankind. The earliest instrumentological finds date back 50,000 years. The first known musical instrument with fibers under ten sion serving as strings and a resonator is the stick zither. From this small beginning, a vast array of plucked and struck stringed instruments evolved, eventually resulting in the first stringed keyboard instruments. With the invention of the hammer harpsichord (gravi cembalo col piano e forte, “harpsichord with piano and forte”, i.e. with the capability of dynamic modulation) in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori toward the beginning of the eighteenth century, the pianoforte was born, which over the following centuries evolved into the most versitile and widely disseminated musical instrument of all time. This was possible only in the context of the high level of devel- opment of artistry and craftsmanship worldwide, particu- larly in the German-speaking part of Europe. Since 1885, the Schimmel family has belonged to a circle of German manufacturers preserving the traditional art and craft of piano building, advancing it to ever greater perfection. Today Schimmel ranks first among the resident German piano manufacturers still owned and operated by Contents the original founding family, now in its fourth generation. Schimmel pianos enjoy an excellent reputation worldwide. 09 The Fascination of the Piano This booklet, now in its completely revised and 15 The Evolution of the Piano up dated eighth edition, was first published in 1985 on The Origin of Music and Stringed Instruments the occa sion of the centennial of Wilhelm Schimmel, 18 Early Stringed Instruments – Plucked Wood Pianofortefa brik GmbH.

  • No Matter Where You'll Be Today, the Compact and Lightweight ESX Digital
    No matter where you’ll be today, the compact and lightweight ESX digital piano will be right there with you. There will be no compro mise in tone and touch when you play the portable ESX. Using Kawai’s acclaimed Harmonic Imaging sound technology you’ll carry the bold and beautiful tone of our nine-foot EX Concert Piano with you. And the feel of the new Advanced Hammer Action II will satis fy even the most demanding player. TONE The ESX uses our critically acclaimed Harmonic Imaging sound technology… the same technology used in our award-winning MP9000 Professional Stage Piano. Harmonic Imaging creates an acoustic piano sound of remarkable depth, expression and realism. You’ll also be impressed with the other sounds of the ESX… Strings, Electric Pianos, Organs – 16 sounds in all. And any two sounds can be layered together in a DUAL mode. TOUCH Advanced Hammer Action II Kawai’s new Advanced Hammer Action II brings the feel of a real grand piano to the ESX. Its weighted hammer action design offers superb response and a smooth feel that will satis fy the needs of piano players and music educators alike. Digital SOUND SYSTEM The sound system of the ESX uses an innovative design in which the stereo speakers face out from the rear panel toward the audience or classroom. A port system releases sound from the top panel toward the player. This unique system delivers a surprising amount of sound volume while creating a natural sound for the player. The EQ feature allows you to adjust the sound quality to match the room that you are playing in.

    Introduction Main Operation EDIT Menu STORE Button & SETUPs Owner’s Manual Recorder USB Menu SYSTEM Menu Appendix Thank you for purchasing this Kawai MP7SE stage piano. This owner’s manual contains important information regarding the instrument’s usage and operation. Please read all chapters carefully, keeping this manual handy for future reference. About this Owner’s Manual Before attempting to play this instrument, please read the Introduction chapter from page 10 of this owner’s manual. This chapter provides a brief explanation of each section of the MP7SE’s control panel, an overview of its various jacks and connectors, and details how the components of the instrument’s sound are structured. The Main Operation chapter (page 20) provides an overview of the instrument’s most commonly used functions, beginning with turning zones on and off, adjusting their volume, and selecting sounds. Later on, this chapter introduces basic sound adjustment using the four control knobs, before examining how reverb, EFX, and amp simulation can all be applied to dramatically change the character of the selected sound. Next, the MP7SE’s authentic Tonewheel Organ mode is outlined, explaining how to adjust drawbar positions using zone faders and control knobs, and change the organ’s percussion characteristics. The chapter closes with an explanation of the instrument’s global EQ and transpose functions. The EDIT Menu chapter (page 38) lists all available INT mode and EXT mode parameters by category for convenient reference. The STORE Button & SETUP Menus chapter (page 64) outlines storing customised sounds, capturing the entire panel configuration as a SETUP, then recalling different SETUPs from the MP7SE’s internal memory.
