Fazioli sets a new standard for pianos in the 21st century. When you caress the keys of the Fazioli 6-foot grand piano, you set in motion an action technology you have never felt before. Unique geometry with hand assembled parts custom made in Germany by Renner allows for ultimate expression.
Paolo Fazioli has created a grand piano with a full, rich bass that belies its size. The evenness of tone from register to register is unparalleled in piano scale design. The finest materials and workmanship possible come together in a piano that offers the most rewarding playing experience for a piano of its size. These pianos are in very limited supply since each hand-built instrument takes at least a year to build.
In cooperation with The Piano Place
being a proud owner of a F156 i can totally confirm. It’s astonishing how well they sound live.
I know of someone who sold his house to buy a Fazioli then move into a trailer w/ his new piano. What dedication!
My story
Definitely worth it!!
I would sell my Fazioli to get booze! My trailer is not good for Fazioli anyway due to lack of HVAC.
I actually had the opportunity to play the piano in the Fazioli concert hall (next to the factory) in Sacile in front of audience. It was a dream of a piano. Never before in my life I had this perfect experience with sound quality, feeling, balance, and ease of playing. I fell in love with it. If I ever win the lottery I will definitely buy a Fazioli.
And I heard that one… To bad their ventilation system is not a fazioli
Oh my Lord ... a Fazioli is one of the things on my "bucket list". Amazing things for sure.
The first time I heard of Fazioli Pianos was watching the 2021 Chopin International Competition. One of the biggest winners was Fazioli, with it's beautiful and embracing sound, fully deserving of acknowledgement.
Martin Garcia Garcia plays the piano perfectly
I don't often comment on your videos (although I am a regular viewer) but when I hear something really outstanding, I sometimes feel compelled to do so.
What a sparkling tone, and lovely resonance this instrument has in all registers. The bass notes are so clear, balanced. And your playing of the Scarlatti was a perfect choice for this wonderful, distinct articulation... each note floating up into existence.
Although I've never even been in the same room as a Fazioli, I have heard the wonderful things they can do. It's nice to hear your assessment of a lesser known yet hugely respected maker.
I played one at the Frankfurt Music Fair in the early 90s. I was astounded. 9:40 is the real substance. However they mange it - soundboard, scaling, ....? - it is that rich sound that provides the foundation for all else that is wonderful about this instrument. What good is the best action on a tinny piano? Action was perfected generations ago. By whatever alchemy produces that tone, that is where the art still resides.
That piano does sound very good, and it's tuned well. Very nice playing!
Hello Robert
That Fazioli is just beautiful
The bass is exactly as you described
It just sings from bass to treble
What an incredible experience you had, playing that beauty in front of the man himself
Thanks so much
Dave
Good grief! What a piano! Brilliant throughout its range. You're right about the bass. And the treble is crisp with what sounds like lots of extra overtones. At that price, I could buy a house. Two of those pianos would cost what they claim my house is worth! I can only dream! Move over, Steinway! Reminds me of that 32' piano I sent you the link for. The one that your movers would hate to move! :)
My dream is to own a beautiful fazioli piano! 🎹

6foot sounds great.
I played on a Fazioli F278 a few times and it's certainly one of my favourite pianos. Amazing touch/response, stunning sound.
Sounds amazing!
This has an astounding tone. Best piano I’ve heard recorded of all your videos 🎹👍
I have a wonderful Steinway B (7') that I absolutely love. If I did not, I am certain I would be very happy with this Fazioli. Terrific sound Robert!
Well I did the math Maestro!!!! 1413 a month for 108 months?? It is worth it!!!! Thxxx beautiful playing!
The good news is, a piano like this is something you can enjoy for the rest of your life and pass down to future generations.
this is special!
I've been waiting for you to review Fazioli! Played my first Fazioli a year ago (F183) and came away super impressed with the tonal complexity. Of course Fazioli was way out of my budget.
I describe it as airy and somewhat bright. Not as velvety as Steinway. I'm not judging if better or worse, I think it depends on the piece.
What is “airy”??
Very musical playing - enjoyable.
Thank you!
Fazioli are the best pianos in the world
fazioli is the best piano in the world
Man what a great sound. I'd love to etude the crap out of it with some Chopin or maybe some Bach..
I want to play a nice grand piano like this if given the opportunity, namely because I wanna try these amazing actions. But anyways, acoustics always win, no matter how cheap or expensive can be.
Precision in the articulation of notes & the action of the instrument are important in determining quality. Why I tend to gravitate toward metal style electric guitar designs rather the the traditional builds in spite of not being a metal guutarist.
The tone seems bell like.
Robert, are you now a Fazioli dealer?! Wishing you the best success! They’re incredible pianos.
We are offering Fazioli pianos in cooperation with The Piano Place.
♬ I have also played a Fazioli at their Piano Dealer in Troy Michigan, "The Piano Place" • Yes: First class. 🚂
That is where I made the video of the piano! Let me know if you’d like to set up a time to try it out for yourself! Robert@Livingpianos.com
A fantastic instrument, beautifully demonstrated. Thanks, Robert.
My opinion of Fazioli? The best.
I hear less of neighbouring strings than with other pianos, giving clearer tunes and harmonies.
I assume that F183 is the size in centimetres !
🥰
Korg uses an Italian piano sample for their digital piano. I'll bet its a Fazioli, because the Korg shares this same sound.
How is that amazing sound coming out of such a small piano?
It is truly remarkable. I have never experienced anything like it!
BYU has a 9' & an 11'. They're not as rich sounding as steinways.
But why is not being chosen more often by contestants in competition?
It is being chosen a great deal in piano competitions including: the National Chopin Piano Competition, the Liszt Competition, Artur Rubinstein Piano Competition, Honens Piano Competition, Sydney International Piano Competition, Scottish International Piano Competition, International Piano Competition Halina Czerny, Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition, and the Gina Bachauer Piano Competition.
So, all that said... with no regard for price, which would you get of the 6-7 ft. variety? Fazioli, Boesendorfer, or Steinway?
A very special Steinway, which is sweet enough ( like dark chocolate 70% cocoa) as opposed to Fazioli, which is like milk chocolate.
I don’t know about the Fazoli, but this is similar to my Boston Falcone… and why are you in my old home town (Troy, Michigan)?
Hej. Have you played a stewret and sons from australia.. Per.
This is History! The comments section are making me Blush! ☺️
Reminds of a Kawai piano, but a tad better!
Such a rich tone, yr pieces sound great from it!
Cheers!
The sound reminds me a LOT of my Boston grand - very similar indeed.
Which model do you have?
Boston is just overpriced old design Kawai with a Designed by Steinway logo slapped on to justify the price. Don’t kid urself 😏
These are amazing pianos, but let's try to keep the focus on the music itself. Good music should be a pleasure on any decent instrument.
Best Music schools chgitein inch er. Accepts best students.
We hardly get to hear the low notes... the middle and high notes are great on lots of pianos... it's the low notes we need to hear. hopefully in another video.
Here it is: th-cam.com/video/PMqAJGjPgTY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sycWzpB3JEg6KIbB&t=580
Wonderful pianos. Of course, they already know that...just look at the price. 🤣
The low end sounds good, the top is a bit "meh."
..and only $152,000...
This piano checks all the boxes and is a pleasure, but doesn’t win over my heart. Maybe it’s the bright and monotone treble. To their advantage, Fazioli pianos, opposed to Steinways, leave the shop ready for the concert stage. This piano new, probably goes for around $165k (including tax and tariff). For this price, I’d much rather have a retired Steinway C&A model D that has been broken in and perfected. Not only does it have a broader color palate, it has a soul. Another option would be a Steinway model A, similar in size to the shown piano. Not only would one save about $40k, but that piano could be voiced to one’s exact specifications. Not only that, it has a proven track record of lasting generations. For all we know the Fazioli sound board loses all its power after 40 years. I think the Fazioli is great for amateurs because a lot of the tones are easier to create, but a fine pianist appreciates the artistry required to make a Steinway tell a story.
Fazioli has been making pianos for over 40 years and they hold up extremely well. If you ever have the opportunity to play a Fazioli, it would be interesting to see what kind of connection you would have with the instrument.
@@LivingPianosVideosHaving cross shopped the Fazioli, I played a few concert grands- the F308 and F278. Tremendous power. Responsiveness that is leagues ahead of Steinway. Clearly a Fazioli comes out of the box absolutely perfect, from its tone down to the gold hinges and finishes. It’s clear Fazioli has already raised the bar for other manufacturers- CFX, Shigeru Kawai, even Hamberg Steinways are brighter and bolder than ever before. Regarding Fazioli, I hope they’re around forever and I hope they continue to set the standard for craftsmanship. To me, their tone is so bright, it limits the colors tremendously and my ear becomes fatigued from hearing the same types of sound. I’m curious to see if there is a darker sounding Fazioli out there, even though that’s not what they’re going for. I’ve been watching your videos for years and absolutely enjoy your presentations. Thank you for all that you do.
@@AL-pu7uxyou want a “darker” sounding Faz? Saüter is your 🔑
0:43 why do you conveniently forget to mention Japanese piano makers when the only American pianos that actually have clout is Steinway 🤔 Eurocentricism at its finest I see
Outstanding sound! ❤
