Ballade No. 1 Op. 23 in G minor (F. Chopin)

Performed by Hugh Sung

Pianoteq 3: C3/solorec

The clarity and precision of this virtuoso work is here particularly suitable for demonstrating the improved brilliance of the new piano model. The 4 microphones configured in this solo recording preset enhances the powerful fortissimos.

Clair de Lune (C. Debussy)

Performed by Hugh Sung

Pianoteq 3: C3/close

This dreamy impressionistic work with its triads requires intimacy and gentle softness (enhanced by ample use of the una corda pedal) combined with brilliance and clarity, here realized through the C3/close preset where the strings have a closer perspective to the listener.

Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C#m (F. Liszt)

Performed by Mario Kruselj

Pianoteq 3: C3/solorec

This rather demanding work relies on dynamic expression where the fingers are put into heavy strain by many fast trills. The resulting beautiful string resonances make this particular work a joyful listening experience which Pianoteq delivers with virtue and emotion through its powerful and dynamic string model.

Piano Concerto in A minor Op. 16 No. 1 (E. Grieg)

Performed by Joshua Seth

Un sospiro (F. Liszt)

Performed by Joseph Felice

Pianoteq 3: C3/modified

Improvisation No. 2 (M. Black)

Pianoteq is here showing its diversity by being successfully used as an accompanying grand piano instrument in a slow R'n'B tune.
