Bechstein Residence R4 Classic 120cm Walnut + C. Bechstein Vario silencer

The specialist's opinion

The Residence R4 Classic piano represents tradition in terms of both aesthetics and tone.

It will give you complete satisfaction for many years, whether in terms of dynamism, sound volume or quality of voice and touch.

With a dream touch, faithful to all Bechstein pianos, it is a treat under the fingers. Its black keys are made of ebony, which provides unparalleled comfort. It is also very well balanced, with no noticeable variation from key to key with a wide range of nuances. The wood selected for the soundboard is spruce which comes from the high mountains of the Val di Fiemme in the Dolomites in Italy. Grown on a slope and dried for a very long time with controlled humidity, the wood is simply extraordinary and brings an exquisite and incomparable sound. The hammer heads are made with walnut wood to achieve a colorful, voluminous, clear and precise sound. The felt used is New Zealand sheep's wool, processed in Germany according to a secret traditional recipe. C. Bechstein is the only European manufacturer of grand and upright pianos to have the necessary know-how to manufacture in-house this important element for the production of grand and upright pianos. C. Bechstein is committed to using only the best materials from around the world and to maintaining the highest quality standards. Excellence in its purest form.
