The amazing roll-up piano.

You know sometimes you travel to a gig only to find a junk upright that's never been tuned and with 1/2 the keys broken?

No more :-

RollUp Piano is the ideal portable electronic musical instrument for everyone. The most accomplished artist and aspiring beginner will enjoy the ability to play anywhere with this lightweight portable piano.

The Roll Up Pianos rich detailed sounds are delightful to the most refined ear. Simply it is the most advanced sound engineering technology available in a piano keyboard this portable. Its 49 key, four octave range is so much more than a piano, it also performs 100 unique musical sounds including the organ and xylophone and many more. It is the perfect gift for every music lover.


"The most advanced sound engineering technology available" - how can you go wrong? For a serious competition, they do a version with 61 keys.

Or perhaps, if pushed, a bosendorfer, but it'd mean dropping the Xylophone number

Been there, done that:

As further incentive, in one episode of "Star Trek: Generations", a new crew member (she is one of the high officers) uses one to insouciate herself into Picard's cabin and they play a duet (she on the roll-up piano, him on some sort of thin whistle). Boy, does that rollup pinao sounds good! you could easily mistake it for a Fazioli/Bose/Steinway. Which just shows where this technology may be 500 years in the future.

Best wishes,
Bernhard.

Steinway Model D. It's the best piano I have ever played on.

Why, it would be a Fazibechblüyamawaidorfer, model D, of course. The digital version

[piazzo23]

Bösendorfer or Förster.

The piano I've been practicing on for the last 1000 hours. The piano on which I have worked out every nuance. The piano whose every quirk I know like the back of my hand -- i.e., my own piano.

[pianistimo]

maybe a petrov or steinway with lots of bass and smooth sounding treble.
