      @kallekoivisto5103 Před 2 lety +47

      I know he uses a different word for it but the sostenuto pedal is the middle pedal in most pianos and what Nahre is playing is sounds like that is what's being used. Maybe you confused the word with sustain pedal?

      He is a fascinating person. After the 2019 NAMM show he came to my home and autographed and played my Fazioli 10 foot concert grand. I got to talk with him for about two and a half hours. As a piano enthusiast, it was an exciting and informative afternoon for me.

Fazoli records well because of their well defined sound, some bigger fuller pianos don't record well because all that fullness muddies the sound to a microphone and recording gear.

    I also appreciate your brief tour through the Fazioli factory and the informative highlights you shared! Added educational value to this video.
    There was a piano store in San Francisco that featured Fazioli pianos and hosted a regular mini concert by jazz pianists, who were all clamoring to get a chance to play on one! The evenness of tone from top to bottom is really amazing!
