I was in Hong Kong 2 days ago (Time Square) looking for a lego toy for my son when I saw a music shop on the top floor called Parsons Music. On the showcase was a most amazing looking piano.
The one in their showcase was in red. It is a Schimmel. The keyboard is actually curved slightly (concave). Other than showing off a wierd piano, I wonder how easy is it to play something with curved keyboard. Too bad I can't try it since it was roped off. Beside this piano was another Schimmel Grand - transparent. Too bad can't try that either.
I did get to try to Roland KR17 digital grand piano - only a few minutes. Interesting feel - slightly light touch as compared with the other Roland keys, but very comfortable. Not to mention the sound is excellent from the lowest note to the highest. I was banging it so hard that the shop owner had to walk over and turn down the volume on the piano - I was too loud for another customer trying out the digital drum set...
