This was easy!
first
I’d like to see you say that if I added my 2019 M-Audio Keystation 88 midi controller into the mix!
Btw it's "fatsioli" not "fudgioli"
This was a great mash-up! And I really DO think Fazioli should send you a freebie.
All too easy for you Lord 😂
The prices are hard to discover. I am not a piano dealer.
bro switched up ☠️
Fair indeed, amazing job!
I want to learn! What would you say us the most important first step to learning?
@@DrewAk49I’m not lord V but I play piano, bass and baritone guitar. Music theory was single-handedly the most important tool to learn. Once you understand the theory behind music you can write anything and it will make playing much easier too as once you find some of the notes of the structure you’re able to base the rest of the arrangement on scales you know and fill in the blanks til it sounds right
Boa, Lordão
I think he spoke more on this one video than on his own CZcams channel in total.
We think so too!
😂😂😂
He is a very good and funny person, he goes on several Brazilian podcasts
😂😂
He used to speak a lot in his early videos.
The guessing of the brand is what's impressive here. The cost is arbitrary. I'd expect a player to know his pianos. Id expect a dealer to know his prices. And even then he got one right!
i imagine it's mainly because of how they feel to play
That's what I'm saying. By feel and sound he was able to distinguish the brand. 😮
If you had a lot of exposure to different brands, it is not that hard. They are quite unique, especially Fazioli.@@bennydarko
He said "I think this one is the Fazioli". My guess he was told beforehand which 4 piano brands he would be playing. Still, impressive.
Guitars are easier to tell in my mind so I'm super fascinated by this. I'd love to hear a breakdown
Lord is simply giving the prices that the pianos SHOULD be 😂
Exactly :D
Free on Craigslist?
exactly what I was thinking
It would be great to see him describe what he noticed in each that led him to identify them
you mean hear him describe
@@peestrem31maybe I meant with gestures, or with written signs, or by lip reading. But hearing him describe it would work too
The script of the video
It seems pretty straightforward to me: the cheap Yamaha sounds dull, inward, underdeveloped notes like it's almost out of tune. Steinway is sharp, dry, lightweight, crisp. The Bechstein reminds a Bosendorfer, with rich, mellow, reverberating, rich resonance, deep and strong bass. Finally Faziolli also has a profound harmonic resonance but on its own different way, clear and brighter sound across the board. If Bechstein is a complex pinot noir red wine , Faziolli is a light , tasteful sweet white wine
@@berfava that's great stuff. But it wouldn't have been straightforward for my to even notice all that. As an amateur musician (mostly-rock guitarist and drummer) who doesn't really know any piano but finds this interesting 🙌
Impressive that he knew 100% of the brands correctly. Says something for the individuality of the respective brands.
The man, the musician, the myth…. Lord V is one of the most amazing Brazilians of all time. Very proud of him.
Thanks marcos Ravena!
Agreed ! He is at the same time entertaining, funny, capable of third degree jokes, professional, and he shares willingly his vast knowledge of piano and music in a most appreciated way. Muito obrigado da França !
always thought the guy was russian
Yep, the guy is good! And, just to remember, Brazil has great musicians like Tom Jobim, Villa Lobos, Tim Maia, Elis Regina, and the list goes on...
Brazilian? i thought he was eastern Europe from his accent when he never talks.
Missed opportunity: Lord V gazing into your soul blindfolded (blindfold could have eyes drawn on it) while playing the piano
Great idea! 😅
They could have used similar green frog blindfold with eyes that GothamChess is using.
The incredible talent of naming the brand is more amazing than the correct price.
I'm very proud of him, he's a hero for Brazilian musicians!
Menos se vc tocar funk
I'm a noob at piano, didn't expect them to sounds so different. The Bechstein sounds so beautiful.
Welcome to the wonderful world of piano! I'm 53 and have been playing since I was 7, and I agree that the Bechstein sounds the best.
@@paulis7319 More, it is a C. Bechstein, above the standard Bechstein serie. The Fazioli sounds better here, but it is perfectly tuned. I prefer german Steinway's to the US ones, sound is warmer.
@@keplergso8369 Good to know, thanks! I've never owned a grand piano and only played a few that were in tune, so my experience with them is very limited. As a DIY person I'd probably have better luck learning to tune one than playing one professionally. lol
Yes German pianos are far superior to other ones.
I was thinking the same thing. The Fazioli was there too. I dislike Steinways and the Yamaha was a bit too muddled. I’ve lost a lot of my hearing as I;very gotten older but Steinways still are like getting slapped in the face by the notes the higher you go. It’s almost jarring to me.
That Fazioli did indeed sound nice. Often pianos will either sound rich or bright, somehow this one does both.
The nicest part about the fazioli imo is that you dont hear the vibrating of the snares too much. You can hear it very well with the 2nd piano where it sounds stringy? The fazioli sounds very smooth and balanced.
I've gotten to play a Fazioli a few times (at our local dealer). Absolutely amazing sound and touch. A joy to play (as I slink back onto my Wurlitzer spinet at home...)
I have had the chance to play a 9ft Steinway D and a 7’6” Yamaha CFX at a piano store. Both were so lovely. Playing my Baldwin Acrosonic spinet has always been a disappointment since.
My teacher had a concert size Fazioli in his home. It was amazing. So easy to play and unimaginable the nuances you can add effortlessly. I miss playing it 😢
@@jacobneal5388the Yamaha CFX is also 9 feet long🎹🎶
@@MERCEDES-BENZS600GUARD_V12 I meant to say C7X
I have played a Kawai piano at my music school
Wow, the Fazioli sounds gorgeous!
I was thinking "would it have been possible to tune the other instruments this well"?
@@MikkoRantalainenits not really a tuning issue, but more of the build. Shape and materials make a massive difference for the sound vibration
@@obvioustrash7833 it does sound more in tune than the others though. I am sure a different tuning could have made the others sound crisper.
Amazing - I love it when people know their subject like that!
As a fellow piano player, this was so fun to watch!
I honestly liked the Yamaha sound, but daaaaamn, the Fazioli got me when he started to play, wow!!!
This is the best piano comparison video ever!!!
Beautiful playing. I could only make a distinction if he played the exact same songs on each in a row.
Fazioli’s sound was on another level
I'm a guitarist, and enjoy many gear/instrument "blind tests" on CZcams. An important thing to do is to limit how much of the instrument the musician can touch, as that can easily tip them off to the brand. Another thing worth considering is doing the "reveal" only at the end of the video, as that gives a chance for the viewers to "play along" and see how well the can guess.
Forget the prices, how did he guess all names correctly? 😮😮🤯
He made several videos where he compared cheap and expensive pianos. And although he was blindfolded in this video he could not only touch the keys, but also the piano area next to them, that gave some hints too, as different brands built this parts in a different way.
The rest might be some logic. A piano dealer in a certain area would only have some piano brands in stock.
timbre
I presume they gave him a list of which types he would be playing. Otherwise, I don't think it is possible.
@@mikekeenanphdThey do have very distinct sounds and timbre.. Just like it's very easy for a guitar player to distinguish a Stratocaster from a Telecaster
They sound and feel very distinct.
The Yamaha generally has a rather sharp hard sound, while a Bechstein (or Bösendorfer) has a very full and smooth sound, with the Steinway generally lying somewhere in between.
Think of it like being able to tell different car brands appart from their sounds and feel. They are all cars, but some have destinct feel and sound.
Wow! I enjoyed just listening to the beautiful sounds those pianos had.
Thank you for having such a fun guest on the show - What an awesome collab! 😍
If I had to choose one, I'd have the Steinway. Clair de Lune just sounds right on the Steinway.
If you heard from other videos, it sounds Excellent on a Fazioli and Bechstein. Just dreamy.
Dear Pianote, I must have missed the part where he played a "cheap" piano. Sincerely, The Real World
More accesible😅
Depends what kind of circles you move in.
So you are posh@@mariemccann5895
@@mariemccann5895 not really, no. Pianoes come in all price classes, so a cheap piano is objectively speaking much more like 500-1000 $. At the very best one can argue the Yamaha is a high mid range piano.
just buy a keyboard in a thrift shop then
The Fazioli sounds super sweet to me 😌🥰
He was very good at discerning the brands. I wouldn't have a clue, though if I had an opportunity to purchase a piano, I'd go with Steinway just by the name.☺
Faziolis are in general consider better, they just dont have that much marketing, and are more premium
@@juanmanuelvallejo3987 just my opinion, but Fazioli probably doesn't have the longevity and reputation Steinway has. Apparently both brands are crazy expensive, so no difference there!☺
@@lelleithmurray235 any piano from any high end brand is sure to last a long time as long as you take care of it. It's just that Fazioli compared to Steinway makes lesser pianos, and are hard to come by, and the marketing is a lot beter on Steinway's end🎹🎶
You nailed it, Lord! Good job!
Great job Vinheteiro, next time the chickens 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I see Lord V and it's an automatic thumbs up. It's that simple.
For me Steinway no.1, Fazioli and Bachstein no.2, Yamaha no.3.
For me also as a pianist in a Concert Grand category: 1. FAZIOLI, ( buttery , flawless keyboard, great resonance plate vibrating, sharp 3rd and 4th octave, exact original tunning ) 2. BECHSTEIN ( has great Contra and Sub Contra octave it "roars" deep and so good like a lion), 3.YAMAHA (great 5th and 6th octave, buttery keyboard) and 4. STEINWAY & SONS ( but S&S SPIRIO/r model D is No. 1 for me out of Concert Grand series and for having it in personal collection - great modern functional grand piano)
Yeah, the Fazioli sounded too "clean" and hermetic for my taste. I like that the Steinway sounded a little looser with more resonance. Could have been the music selection as well but my judgement is based on what we were given.
I loved the Fazioli playing in the last Chopin Internacional Competition. But I don't think I would have been able to recognize it.
You know i kind of noticed that all brands sound different so it only makes sense that someone such as him would instantly tell the difference
Its just like any experts or enthusiasts can tell different sounds apart based on brands (Toyota is going to sound different from Ford for example)
But being able to guess prices based on note feelings and mechanics is something else entirely
Impressive flex Mr. V :)
Enjoyed this, thank you. Fun he got all the types right by recognizing sound and action.
I love this channel I've learned a lot about piano playing with it also I love this dude's channel he has got to be by far the top five in piano players on CZcams.
Absolutely amazing. He got all the brands right, that takes a keen ear to do that.
This was fun!!! I had a wonderful console piano that I had to part with and eventually I was able to have a new piano. Sadly, it does not have the sound or touch of my beloved piano, but I am grateful I am able to play once again. Fast forward a few years and visiting my SIL and had opportunity to play her birthday present from my brother. Oh my…..she is delighted….me???? It was like fingernails on a chalkboard!!
This is Awesome ❤❤
I definitely recognized the Steinway and Bechsten sound coz Vinheteteiro had played using them before and I could recognize the sound right away. He is among 2 piano player I followed on CZcams
This man is awesome 🎉
Mr. Fazioli, send a free piano to him. Best pianos of the world! 🤩
Glad to see him here doing this stuff!
This is so cool! I know he can tell. ❤😊👍💯
Excellent. (and I hope he received his free piano 😎)
Lovely !!
As an EDM and Trance enthusiast, the Bechstein is by far my favorite. It has such a vibrant sound from the lows to the highs. The Fazioli runs a close second. What's crazy is that the Steinway sounds more like the default startup piano sound on the Yamaha MODX/Montage, while the Yamaha piano sounds nothing like it.
Oh dear, Lord V has gone and used up 20 videos worth of speech in one go. 😁 I love this guy.
He is an amazing musician, it's just incredible that he could identify the manufacturers of the pianos.
I could listen to him play 24 hours a day.
Great to finally hear his voice!
Amazing 🎉🎉
The man, the myth, the legend! Happy to see him in this channel.
Iam not a musician but they sound so distinct from each other. Just wow
He can tell the brands. The price? That's hard. At least he got the Fazioli right haha. Now if I could just find a Fazioli to try for my self🎹🎶
He knows the price because it is his dream piano
I liked the sound of the steinway more, it was warmer personally than the fizoli but i respect your choice, still lovely pianos
Wonderful!
Fazioli! 🇮🇹 🎹
That was totally awesome..
Thanks
I like the way the second one sounded most.
Lord Vinheteiro, a legend!
Yeah, that fazioli was voiced 😙🤌 to perfection, I liked the bechstein too
100% he could peek under the blindfold. Huge gaps on both sides of his nose. And the brands are immediately above the keys.
By the way FAZIOLI is pronunced FATZIOLI for english speaking. The way you say it in italian means: "beans"
Actually in Italian it is "FATZOLI". Lord V was pronouncing it in a wrong way.
i think its because in Brazil there is many italian names/foods with the GG sound in it, and that ZZ sound we only say correct in pizza... In other foods/names we pronouce like english Z. So i think he tried to say it more "italianish" but ended up mistaking just because its not common to us to pronounce it and also he tried to say it properly with what came to his mind
Ha! This is the first time I've seen him smile! 😄 Good job there, V-- and who knew on the prices; inflation gets us all. Plus, here in the U.S, prices are especially out of sight (even when not blindfolded! 😄). Love your channel, your great sense of humor, and your beautiful playing.
This guy is from another planet. Amazingly talented. How can he tell the brand just by hearing it
I want a Fazioli, too! 😂❤👍🎵
Parabéns pelo vídeos, o vinheteiro é demais👏
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE GAME!!!
It was so much fun!😅
Fazioli was my immediate favourite
Great video - some of the leading manufacturers have a “second” (or maybe even a “third”) line of piano bearing a different name and built in another factory (usually abroad) to its specs. Would be interested to see what Lord makes of such models - I have an upright W.Hoffmann made in Czech Rep. that’s based on C. Bechstein design/specs. - ok - it’s not “quite up there” with a Bechstein - but it’s a damn sight cheaper !
Steinways just sound so right and natural to me. My whole life I practiced on them and it is the only brand I could pick based on sound. I think I am just conditioned to prefer them by my own history and by their presence in so many performances in America.
Nice video, Lord V is awesome!
I loved the sound of the last piano also right away when he started to play it, a bit expenive tough
This just shows he knows he knows the sound characteristics of the piano brands. Which is impressive but nothing to do with cheap vs expensive. To me the Fazioli did sound the best and the Steinway second. But the cheaper Yamaha and other sounded comparable.
You are hearing through whatever random mic and mixing they are using and whatever random speakers/headset you are using so it really makes no sense to judge based on the video.
@@BadministratorNot to mention CZcams’s compression. It’s impossible to discern any true audio difference on CZcams.
What's usually true about a lineup of instruments is that some obviously have better craftsmanship and/or sound and should therefore be worth more than others. What is not always so apparent is does that better quality/sound justify how much they actually cost vs their competitors.
@@davidhunt6508 Yamaha also makes expensive pianos. Any way yeah I get what you mean🎹🎶
To my untrained ear the Steinway had the best sound.
Yes! Yes! It was all so full and clear.
To each their own I guess. That Steinway sounded crap to me (for a Steinway), and worth nowhere near the $140k price tag. The Lord obviously thinks the same when naming his price.
Is imposible to say that from the sound of a cell or something like this.
That Steinway was the most out of tune of all the pianos - - - no fault of its own. The people providing the pianos just didn’t check it very carefully.
@@chazm3 tuning is the least of that Steinway's problem
Amazing!
I've always been a Steinway girl but that Bechstein was incredible. Could you include/add the models of each piano in the chapter notes?
Fazioli sounds like a nice Italian piano. 🎹 👍
Master of piano Ears 👂!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can recognize the sound of a Steinway, but I would not know the others. Wow, the Fazioli sounds amazing. It's so clear and vibrant.
Very talented man.
Prices vary country to country.❤
Excelente Maestro!
That’s was excellent, & very entertaining (of course he could tell!,)- putting a blindfold on him so he wasn’t staring at me while he played was a bit cruel...like putting a plastic collar on a puppy 😅
So proud... indeed the king of champolas
I have tried all these brands so far. Once you step to like the high cost, no matter if you choose Steinway, or Fazioli, or even the cheaper Bechstein, these pianos will bring out the complete best out from the player. But for me in terms of balance between cost and sound, Bechstein for me.
He’s amazing
Eu como brasileira estou orgulhosa de você Lord Vinheteiro com esse dom maravilhoso dado por Deus....
Wow this was super impressive!
It makes sense that he only knows the price of his favourite one. Amazing to see how easily he identified the brands!!
Crazy how he got the brands 😮
If you play enough you can tell, I could but I have 35+ years experience plus each brand has a very distinct sound. I wouldn’t be able to tell the price, that wouldn’t be easy for anyone blind.
Fazioli first second Bechstein third Steinway.
I would love to own a bechstein (Steinway is way out of my league) and I'm still with my Yamaha U3 since I was 7
Genial simplemente. Los precios son para los vendedores.
Simpatica prueba 😊
What a humble and Good man!
He is a real Lord. It seems that he is a descendant of an aristocratic family, but no one in Brazil knows for sure.
Me closing my eyes and listening intently: Yup, that's a piano.
YOU ARE A GENIOUS!!
To know the brand based off the sound alone is incredible, the price guessing was funny though, but he plays doesn't purchase haha.... very awesome though loved this 🥰😁👍
I melted when I heard Clair de Lune. I wanted more, and I am a rock fan of 40+ years.
thats still impresive
