There is a big difference. The upright has more of a closed in boxy and tinny sound compared to the grand which has a louder, richer and warmer, sound. I have always liked the sound of both pianos but there is a certian sound from an old upright piano which I have always liked. I have never got to play a piano with that sound yet, maybe one day I will.
@@almeisam this string length has a lot to do with that and the resonance has less projection on the upright design. It perfect for old tyme saloon songs though.
It’s very interesting to hear the different qualities of each instrument. The primary tell for me was how the upright had a more concealed and boxy sound compared to the full and large sound of the grand. Especially on the higher and lower parts of the instrument, you can really tell the difference with the fullness of sound.
Part of that is because of microphone placement, how the grand is center, the upright is against a wall, etc. Though I do agree, you can hear the major differences between them but I think it would be a better video to do it "blind" for the audience where the microphone is placed wherever is most optimal for each instruments sound, and not sharing a single microphone.

Love the full range sound and looks of a grand but there's something charming and nostalgia of an old full upright piano sitting up against the wall of a home
Completely agree. Would love a mix of them. Maybe its my untrained ears but there sounds seems to stay longer in the upright piano, which i like. The clarity of the grand piano is on another level tho
@@felixccaa felt the same way, or that atlest some keys/keys played togheter was out of tune. A bit of a saloon-sound partly. Maybe its a resonance thing?
those are some beautiful pianos!! I've never seen a natural wood grand piano, it's almost always been black or white, but, that one looks absolutely wonderful. And, I'm glad you did this comparison, cause, I remember my music teacher back in elementary school had an upright piano, and I'd been wondering if there really was a difference. There is, but, not so much that it detracts from the music, as they both sound wonderful. Though, I do prefer the grand piano myself, the upright is still a wonderful one.
A diferença mais evidente é á intensidade do som o volume, além disso o piano de cauda tem uma clareza nas notas ao passo que o piano de armário é mais abafado ele dá a sensação de estar mais distante.
Sim, o piano de armário ecoa muito, dá a impressão de estar em uma catedral, já o piano de cauda tem um som mais nítido e harmonioso, mas eu acho que dependendo do ambiente, o piano armario consegue soar mais nítido também
I find I like old upright pianos for contrapuntal music - there's actually a service to the often more complex (but less refined) timbre of the notes in separating voices and making them sound unique. That being said, Chopin Waltzes, Rachmaninoff, or anything using chord extensions longs for the pristine tone of a grand.
I really love that happy and charming tone of the upright. Eventhough there are loads of pianos like that and it's absolutely nothing special, I'd still spend my life funds for a piano with a sound like this. I don't care about the tuning, it sounds amazing to me!!
O piano de cauda tem o som mais poderoso, mas o outro também tem sua beleza. Na primeira música do vídeo, por exemplo, eu gostei mais no piano menor. Passaria horas ouvindo você tocar, Vinheteiro.
Yes. The upright sounds more subdued and tinny. But with your playing, both sound really good. However I just discovered that I prefer the sound of a grand piano.
I love this guy's videos. Re the difference -- of course it's obvious, but miking, equalizing, and acoustics of the room based on the positioning of the two pianos could contribute to the difference. The inherent difference is understandable, but we have no way of knowing if what we hear on the video represents only that.
The strings are longer in the grand and the soundboards are probably vastly different as well, plus having the lid that opens to the side gives the grand more projection to the camera/microphone, the upright has the lid on top so the main part of the sound is going straight up.
A impressão inicial é de que o microfone está mais próximo do piano longo, mas suponho que seja pq colocaram ele para captar em um ponto médio entre os dois. Caso seja isto, a diferença de propagação do som é enorme. Muito bom.
Kkkk nada, amigo! A diferença de volume é por causa do tamanho mesmo! Lindo né? Eu tenho um essenfelder de parede que já dá pra ouvir no condomínio todo…imagina um Grand Piano… deve dar pra escutar no Bairro inteiro!
I'd be curious to compare the upright moved away from the wall to the grand. I know it isn't necessarily the way an upright is intended to be used, but it would be interesting to hear just how much of the upright's sound is lost to the wall.
The comparison with this old and rather 'bad' upright is too unfair, a comparison with a good upright like his Yamaha U3 would have been far more interesting !
Due to aging, our hearing will naturally start to deteriorate, my apologies if I no longer able to discern the difference in sound between the grand piano and upright piano. However over the past few weeks of listening to your classical music, you cause an old man's mind to be more analytical, more creative, more observant and most important of all, more insightful. God bless you.❤
@Soulful Notes Yes, you're right! I'm a composer and producer. From the little I've heard you make great compositions, I'm sure I'll listen to your channel more in depth! If you want to check out mine, here's the link! th-cam.com/video/4A_SaGCcCKA/w-d-xo.html Stay safe!
I can hear that the grand piano has more volume, is placed more advantageously for accoustics, and is more sensitive / responsive to the touch. Also, the upright is badly in need of tuning...
the upright piano is a slightly muffled compared to the grand piano, probably because the lid is fully closed on an upright piano the grand piano lid is open just a bit in this video.
Sounds like there's way more reverb on the upright, like you're hearing it from down the hall, but I personally prefer that tone over the grand's more crisp sound.
That's one terrificially fine upright piano, a real biggie, too, to hold up so well in these comparisons. Only a difference (and at that not by much) in open sonority makes the difference in the grand's favour.
Parabéns pela escolha das músicas, repertório impecável. A respeito do desafio, a diferença é bastante perceptível, embora o timbre de ambos seja muito bonito.
Once you tasted the full power of an upright with removed front panel, you can hardly go back to a closed upright, and you realise why pianists love playing on a Grand.
Definite volume difference. I have just started playing the piano but I have picked up the differences in sound. Some pianos are great for ragtime but don't have that quality for classical. We have a nice parlor grand but I like our Yamaha p515 better for numerous reasons.
I cannot use any description that hasn't already been used. You sir are a very talented person and can bring the best out of any instrument you play. Bravo!
Have you made a video about Equal Temperament versus Well Temperament? I have seen other pianists do that, and it's really important. It turns out that Equal Temperament doesn't really work well for performing pieces written before the twentieth century.
What really surprised me was seeing comparison videos that used the Thomas Young Well Temperament from 1799 for music from the Romantic era versus hearing the same music on a piano tuned to Equal Temperament. The results? The piano tuned to Well Temperament had more sonic and expressive possibilities, while the piano tuned to Equal Temperament sounded stiff and subdued.
Quello a coda ha un suono più bello, va oltre lo strumento, sembrano più di un piano. L altro è più asciutto, razionale, severo, conciso; como se delegasse a una orchestra eventuali abbellimenti. Grazie infinite.
Você faz cada piano soar incrível com o mínimo esforço. Eu amo isso! Peço desculpas se esta mensagem não foi correta, esta não é minha primeira língua.
Olá Lord Vinheteiro, meus parabéns por essa conquista! Chopin Nocturne op.2 suou tão bem nestes belos pianos, faltasse um Debussy Clair de Lune. Você é o melhor do Brasil!
I'd love the free space for a Grand Piano, but my mum and dad purchased a Goddard (London) upright grand piano when I was born and gave it to me. It is about $0.04 sharp of A440 but still in tune after 50 years since initial delivery. I personally love the tone of an upright piano when it was a decent effort to begin with.
I can hear a huge difference, though I don’t quite know how to explain how I hear it, other than when compared to the grand, the upright has a sharper “twang” to it with a swirly chorus effect to it. I’m speaking in guitarist terms of course. I feel that the grand is more suited for this style.
I, too, was wondering how to describe the sound of the upright. You hit it perfectly with the twang and the swirly sound. It almost sounded wrong on the mid notes because of these characteristics
@@Olibaby12 the reason it sounds like that is because the strings are not sounding in unison. When you press a key on an acoustic piano you're not just hitting 1 string, but 3 and, if the piano is out of tune the strings are not tuned to the same frequency so besides the slite pitch drop you also get that corus efect🎹🎶
Lorde, é simplesmente fantástico qualquer um dos dois mas a diferença é grande do de Cauda pro de armário, se eu tivesse o de armário pra mim já serviria kkkk eu gosto do timbre dele por incrível que pareça :) Excelente vídeo e conteúdo como sempre.. eu gostaria que tivesse mais vídeos seus de músicas completas poderia fazer? Abraço!
Test I - IV: The grand piano has a wider range and sounds more clear, but the upright has a bit of a harpsichord vibe to it which I really like. I can't really say that one is better than the other. Test V: R.I.P. upright piano So, as with all musical instruments, what you're playing and what you're going for decides which type of the instrument is best. That said, I'm gonna pull a Dumbledore and give the upright 50 extra points for the candle holders. Upright piano wins.
Well, yes, I hear the difference. But, of course the piano sound is coming through your recording, to TH-cam servers, back out to our cell phone speakers :) your presentations are awesome.
I could be wrong and maybe it is just the louder volume of the Grand but it also sounds as if your mic is not picking up the volume accurately. But I'm guessing it's just the Grand as by its very design, is louder. And comparing 2 wonderful wooden pianos like you did is amazing. The Grand and especially that particular one, has a bit of a fuller sound almost making the Upright sound slightly tinny sometimes by comparison. Both sound amazing however and @2:25 I could not hear a difference save in volume. I'd love to see a comparison with a Baby Grand against the Upright or all three.
The difference is quite important. The grand piano sounds bigger But anyway, wished that you would play longer whatever piano you play mister. Always a pleasure to listen to it
I agree with Dave Nature Productions comment. Upright sounds "boxy". Contained sound. The baby grand, especially when you opened it up, sounded "free". The acoustics sound more alive, open and orchestrated. Well played!
I think a fairer test would have been the grand vs your modern upright. Two pianos in good condition. That said I loved the sound of the Beethoven sonata 118 on the upright. Had a bit of an old silent movie vibe to it!
A potência do gran piano é incomparável. Os sons parecem mais claros também, bem mais fácil de perceber as notas. O piano de armário parece um pouco abafado. Não sei se afastar ele da parede poderia dar alguns decibéis a mais. Só testando para saber.
Thank you for the video Lord!!! Try to make ur sonata pathetique, a bit more mysterical, kinda like Horowitz recording. It makes for a better listening experience and almost exciting. Because it feels like you don’t really know where it’s going to end up. Anyways, nice vid!!
What I like most of this video is the painting on the back wall left! But to answer the question: yes, even without my hearing aids I hear a big difference between the two pianos. If I could have only one I would have the grand.
The upright is more quiet, has a more metallic sound while the grand is more cleaner and nicer, if i would pick a piano for a performance, i would pick a grand but if you ask me to pick a piano for my home to practice, i’ll pick the upright not because it sounds special, but because my house cant fit a grand
The grand one is new so it is still in a perfect tuning, while the upright it is not. Also, it is logical for the sound of the grand to be much louder than the sound of the upright by using the same microphone from the same distance to record them. It is like listening to music from one speaker, compared to many speakers. Many speakers will spread the sound better and clearer to the room. It's just physics 😍
Perfeitamente. O timbre do piano de cauda é mais límpido que o do piano vertical. Totalmente diferentes. Mesmo tirando a tampas frontais do piano vertical, não chega ao brilho do piano de cauda.
There's a slight tinny sound from the upright possibly due to the boxy narrow construction and string layout whereas the grand is wider and flatter with a more open layout allowing the sound to spread out. Compare them to the harpsichord and spinet(?) pianos.
The casual listener couldn't tell, but pretty clear difference to this one time piano tuner's ear. Uprights (particularly spinets) are a tuner's nightmare. No matter how hard one works, even a good upright can never sound as good as a good grand or be as easy to tune. The physical mechanics and mechanisms are different in many ways for good reasons, but as different maybe as a reed harmonium and a pipe organ. Great demonstration here.

@@almeisam this string length has a lot to do with that and the resonance has less projection on the upright design. It perfect for old tyme saloon songs though.
Part of the tinny saloon sound comes from hard hammers. Most grands are taken care of better than the common upright.
@@fryloc359 I agree. The hammers can be softened or replaced and it will still sound that way though a bit softer maybe.
Just commented, but you are right, and for good reasons. It's an unfair demonstration if it's only to demonstrate the different sounds.

Yes. The upright sounds more subdued and tinny. But with your playing, both sound really good. However I just discovered that I prefer the sound of a grand piano.
The grand piano has a better frequency response: more bass and treble in the sound; the upright piano sound has too much midrange.
The mic placement does a lot of that
@@Henrix1998 however, if you were there you will definitely be able to tell the difference especially if you play them🎹🎶
The upright is out of tune too.
My favorite upright is Yamaha U3, is too good.

That big piano sounds soooo beautiful... the big chords sound so full and powerful, love it...
Amazing playing on both instruments! Making the only real lesson here; whether you own an upright or a grand, keep it tuned!
Now he's not watching at me, but his portrait does.

Test I - IV: The grand piano has a wider range and sounds more clear, but the upright has a bit of a harpsichord vibe to it which I really like. I can't really say that one is better than the other.

So, as with all musical instruments, what you're playing and what you're going for decides which type of the instrument is best.

A potência do gran piano é incomparável. Os sons parecem mais claros também, bem mais fácil de perceber as notas. O piano de armário parece um pouco abafado. Não sei se afastar ele da parede poderia dar alguns decibéis a mais. Só testando para saber.
Thank you for the video Lord!!!
Try to make ur sonata pathetique, a bit more mysterical, kinda like Horowitz recording. It makes for a better listening experience and almost exciting. Because it feels like you don’t really know where it’s going to end up. Anyways, nice vid!!
didn't expect this much of an difference. the Grand Piano just sounds so much more refined/polished
I think it is a little louder.
Yea you wouldn't say that irl
What I like most of this video is the painting on the back wall left! But to answer the question: yes, even without my hearing aids I hear a big difference between the two pianos. If I could have only one I would have the grand.
The upright is more quiet, has a more metallic sound while the grand is more cleaner and nicer, if i would pick a piano for a performance, i would pick a grand but if you ask me to pick a piano for my home to practice, i’ll pick the upright not because it sounds special, but because my house cant fit a grand
This video is the ultimate advert for a Grand Piano, I definitely need one
The grand one is new so it is still in a perfect tuning, while the upright it is not.
Also, it is logical for the sound of the grand to be much louder than the sound of the upright by using the same microphone from the same distance to record them.
It is like listening to music from one speaker, compared to many speakers.
Many speakers will spread the sound better and clearer to the room.
It's just physics 😍
The difference is probably notisable in person🎹🎶
Perfeitamente. O timbre do piano de cauda é mais límpido que o do piano vertical. Totalmente diferentes. Mesmo tirando a tampas frontais do piano vertical, não chega ao brilho do piano de cauda.
Só no Tchaikovsky que consegui perceber a diferença, nas outras quem sabe pessoalmente é mais fácil notar
Lord. Não entendo nada de música, mas é nítida a diferença na qualidade do som. Parabéns pela aquisição.
Великолепно🥰 Браво👏👏👏👏
There's a slight tinny sound from the upright possibly due to the boxy narrow construction and string layout whereas the grand is wider and flatter with a more open layout allowing the sound to spread out.
Compare them to the harpsichord and spinet(?) pianos.
Nenhum piano de cauda supera a fineza, amplitude sonora, beleza e versatilidade do piano de funk
Oh indeed I do hear the difference....the baby grand piano is more clean sounding where the upright kinda sounds muffled
The casual listener couldn't tell, but pretty clear difference to this one time piano tuner's ear. Uprights (particularly spinets) are a tuner's nightmare. No matter how hard one works, even a good upright can never sound as good as a good grand or be as easy to tune. The physical mechanics and mechanisms are different in many ways for good reasons, but as different maybe as a reed harmonium and a pipe organ. Great demonstration here.
Diferença brutal!!!!
