Yamaha instruments hold up so well. Even in the harsh Minnesota winters, the piano that I have in the studio, as well as the piano that I have at home, holds its tune and produces beautiful sounds and colors.
My main goal is to teach my students to teach themselves. As a student, you have to be convinced of what your teacher tells you, and there’s no better way to remove yourself and listen, to become convinced, than to record yourself with a Disklavier. That is the main component in learning, to hear your own playing and recognize the importance of making a change.
My pedagogy students benefited from using Yamaha instruments and piano lab equipment in their student teaching when they attended our institution.
