Yamaha presents with 'Passion and Performance' at Musikmesse 2014

U1 TransAcoustic™ Piano. Yamaha introduces the U1TA Upright Piano, the first instrument of its kind to reproduce all sounds (in addition to the acoustic piano) from the soundboard, rather than from a traditional speaker. This is made possible by Yamaha's proprietary TransAcoustic™ technology, which turns the entire soundboard of the piano into one big "loudspeaker" that can deliver any sound through this naturally resonant component.

The renewed b-Series. The b-Series, like all Yamaha pianos, are instruments of extraordinary, natural beauty, combining art, craftsmanship and technology; a pleasure to play and to own. The line up has been renewed with new designed casters and solid spruce soundboard on b2 and b3 for a richer sound quality. Visit us at our piano booth in the Forum to experience the renewed b-Series models - or try the fantastic Yamaha Silent Piano SG2 technology.

Grand Piano GB1 now available in polished white. Incorporating the exceptional design concept of Yamaha's coveted C Series, the beautiful GB1 produces a broad dynamic range with superb sound. In addition to the GB1 acoustic version, Yamaha offers the GB1 SG2 Silent version available at a price suitable for smaller budgets and the GB1 E3 Disklavier version. All GB1 models are now available in white colour.
