Yamaha vs Kawai Grand Pianos, baby or conservatory, which to choose?
I have a Yamaha Lu100, taking grade 8 piano, and I find it unacceptable to continue with such a piano. Would it be advisible to get a grand piano? Yamaha and Kawai pianos seems nice to start with. Living in an apartment, it may only be suitable to get a baby grand.
It is a little difficult to answer this question because you are leaving out a lot of relevant information, but I’ll try. Why is it unacceptable to continue playing this piano? Is the action of the keys too hard/soft? Does it just not sound impressive? Will your neighbors care?
Assuming it is a key action problem, this problem can easily be rectified by making a call to your local piano technician. These wonderful people can adjust the action to your liking, as well as « re-voice » the piano. However, this process is quite tedious, as each individual key must be balanced according to taste. But, it will be a lot cheaper than purchasing a new piano.
If you do decide to purchase a grand piano, don’t be afraid to shop for value. A good piano technician will work with you, determine your preferences, and probably have you come in to the store a few times to make sure the piano you purchase is adjusted to your liking.
As for deciding between a baby or a conservatory, keep in mind that a baby grand will still sound « muddy. » Play an octave on a baby grand, then play an octave on a slightly larger grand, and you can hear the difference in clarity. You may just find out that a 5-foot baby grand sounds just like your Yamaha upright.
Good luck to you.
