Still holding true today, the new C. Bechstein Concert pianos are easily being mistaken for a grand piano. Not only by sound, but also by its unique action that comes amazingly close to a grand piano action. Conveniently sized and full of rich tone, the C. Bechstein R6 will adorn your music room and bring you endless moments of joy.	As a variant of the C 116 Modern3, the classic console construction method, with feet and toes, emphasizes the vertical aspect and gives the C 116 Cubus Moderne more visual substance. Whether with or without console, both models offer the perfect musical and visual treat for the senses.	It's music to our ears when the French music periodical Le Monde de la Musique describes the model series as ``evidence of the great tradition of piano making in Germany'', and further: Schimmel pianos are undoubtedly ... more than just a study instrument ... A direct success among tested instruments ... [It] stands out for its fine richness in tonal quality and harmonic structure. This is an instrument that has been thought through down to the last detail...".	https://pianovertu.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Residence-R-4-Classic_16x9_FR.mp4 The medium-sized C.

This extraordinary sound is wonderfully easy to shape and experience thanks to the extreme responsiveness and the large dynamic range. Classic aesthetics that inspire generations The C.
