The sound and feel of world-class concert grands

You’ll delight in playing these impeccable sounds on this Clavinova’s graded hammer-action keyboard, which is expertly crafted by Yamaha artisans using cutting-edge multi-sensor triggering and keys with synthetic ivory and ebony surfaces for a remarkably realistic acoustic grand piano playing experience. As Yamaha’s Grand Expression Modeling technology replicates the mechanics of a piano’s hammers, strings, and internal components, Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) re-creates the resonance of the piano strings and body as they respond in real time to the innumerable acoustic factors at play within an acoustic grand piano. Through headphones, concert hall performances are reproduced with breathtaking spatial dimensionality, courtesy of Yamaha’s 3D Binaural Sampling. And of course, your Clavinova CSP-255 will never need tuning or registration! Superb aesthetics are an intrinsic component of the instrument’s design, as evidenced by the beautiful upright piano cabinetry that will grace any room in your home.

The Clavinova: a true game changer

When Yamaha introduced the Clavinova in 1983, it changed everything. A sleek electric piano that could replicate the performance and power of a concert grand with stunning fidelity, the Clavinova sounded and played like the real thing. In their relentless pursuit of excellence, Yamaha’s skilled technicians meticulously designed the Clavinova in collaboration with world-renowned concert pianists to ensure that the new instrument faithfully re-created the acoustic grand piano playing experience. From its graded hammer action and triple pedals to its state-of-the-art audio system that naturally radiates the sound out into the room, the Clavinova is a sensory tour de force for musicians and music lovers alike. Decades later, the Yamaha Clavinova continues to inspire musicians, from beginners to accomplished professionals, with its authentic acoustic piano action, elegant cabinetry, and the inimitable sound of iconic concert grands.
