The sound of a New York concert grand

Power, articulation and expressive range NY Grand S274 is based on the Steinway & Sons New York D-274, a 9’ concert grand introduced in 1884 and renowned for its rich, powerful sound, projection and responsive action. Recorded at Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, the instrument was captured with DPA cardioid microphones up close and DPA Omni microphones at medium distance using an A-B configuration. Robot-assisted deep multisampling preserves the broad dynamics and articulation that make this concert grand so expressive.

About

The Steinway & Sons New York D-274 concert grand piano is the largest and most popular model in the Steinway line. Introduced in 1884, it’s been used by some of the world's greatest pianists including Vladimir Horowitz, Artur Rubinstein and Alicia de Larrocha. Known for its rich, powerful sound and its ability to project well in large concert halls, the D-274 is also prized for its responsive action, allowing pianists to achieve a wide range of dynamics and articulation. If you’ve always wanted to try one, the NY Grand S274 is your chance.

On this concert grand we used DPA cardioid microphones for the close miking and DPA Omni microphones for medium-distanced with A-B miking technique to record this spectacular piano at the legendary Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, Italy, within the walls of a 15th century convent. In addition to our many IK sample sessions over the years, Fonoprint has hosted the very best Italian and international artists from Ennio Morricone to Luciano Pavarotti to Andrea Bocelli.
