Internet Piano!


Yeah! internet has now found its way to the grand piano too. The new $42000 Yamaha Disklavier Mark IV has become the first piano in the world to boast an internet connection.

But why internet in a piano?!

This piano also has self-player capability, a technology that lets the piano to play all by itself the musical notes it has been fed with. This technology when combined with internet, enables the piano to connect to online piano radio stations and play itself all day in that musical style! Yes! the keys and pedals all move up and down automatically to strike real strings, making live acoustic music!

This piano has a built in 80GB hard drive to store songs that the piano can self play. The piano can also go online and get these specially encoded songs from the Yamaha store. The piano can also play standard MIDI files.

This piano doubles up as a piano teacher too. It displays notes on a monitor connected to it and automatically scrolls the notes as you play. It even helps the pianist by physically indicating the next note by half pressing that key!

This piano can also play synchronous with music CDs playing through its speakers. It automatically plays the piano part along with the music on the CD!

This state of the art piano comes with a Wi-fi enabled touch screen remote! It lets you control all its features and even enables searching online stores from it.

So, the next time when you see a piano moving its strings and hammers all by itself dont get fantasized that it is Jerry running around on the strings!, it might well be the latest digital player piano from Yamaha!

Here is the video
