Fryderyk Chopin Competition 2015/01/21 2015 is the year the Fryderyk Chopin Competition will be held in October. This competition is one of the biggest classic competitions, along with Queen Elisabeth Music Competition and Tchaikovsky Competition, and this year will be the 17th time, initiated in 1927. The pianos nominated for the competition once included Bosendorfer, but this year the 4 pianos, Steinway&Sons, Yamaha, Kawai, and Fazioli are selected. Both Yamaha and Kawai has been nominated to this Chopin Competition since the 11th one held in 1985. The models selected back then were Yamaha CFIII and Kawai EX, both of which are the ones Takemoto Piano has in our inventory at this moment. Both Yamaha CF III and Kawai EX are differentiated from their standard grand models in the manufacturing process, that every single piano is hand-made very carefully by craftsman. They use specially-designed hammers with specially-selected felts exclusive for those concert grands, responsible action, and frame and soundboard that are tested and developed a number of times to pursue what pianists would really like to express on stage. It is a good chance for sales promotion around the competition time. Why don't you consider having Yamaha CFIII or Kawai EX piano in your showroom?
