Balakirev: Piano Concertos; Grande Fantaisie on Russian Folksongs

Advantages: Music is great!
Disadvantages: When the piano goes out of tune!

...Well, pianos ayyy?! I love the piano, I have one at home, and Ive been playing for a year now. Not very long, but I'm learning very well, and have learned alot of songs, from pop to classic, to classic to alternative. I also make up my own musical tunes and songs. I dont know what I would do without music! lol. Music helps me to relax, and unwind after a tiring, stressful day.

Disadvantages: Legs don't detatch once assembled as far as we can tell.

It isnt a problem however as Im sure it will proudly sit in the living room for a while yet- even my neices who are 5 and 8 had a wonderful time playing with it! I cannot fault the baby grand piano, its a fisher price classic.... Read review

...The Steinway and Sons piano Model D is an icon and a tribute to their ingenious minds quest for everlasting quality. The Steinway model D is recognised worldwide as a breakthrough in pianomaking. They have been used and played by some of the great giants of the piano such as Sviatoslav Richter, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli and Emil Gilels. The quality of sound that is possible to achieve on this great piece of engineering is endless. A master pianist will be able to get the sweetest of high notes the crispiest of middle notes and a strong deep bass. Also which has helped this piano gain such acclaim is the ease of being subtle with the sound. When ever you see one of these on a stage you will know that the buyer was wise with their money as at an average price-tag of £100,000 is worth every penny I assure anyone. They usually remain in...
