Hello again, and welcome to a very special new series we’ll be starting here at the Merriam Pianos KZbin channel. In this new series, we’re going to be talking to professional musicians whose pianos are at the center of their creative lives. We’ll be hearing what makes their pianos special, how they chose their piano, and the role the piano plays in their lives right now.
For our very first episode, we will be featuring Adrean Farrugia. Adrean is a highly accomplished, Juno winning jazz pianist and active university educator based out of the Greater Toronto area. The piano Adrean practices and composes on in his home is a Shigeru Kawai SK-2.

Adrean’s Shigeru Kawai Story
As mentioned above, Adrean’s personal piano is a 2008 Shigeru Kawai SK-2. After owning and playing the piano hard for 10 years now, Adrean makes special note of how the action has not changed in that time, feeling just as precise and smooth as the first day the piano arrived in his home.
The overall sound of the instrument, particularly the evenness, richness of overtones, and unique voice instantly connected to Adrean the first time he played this particular SK2. These were compelling factors in him choosing the SK2 over other high-quality instruments by Yamaha, Steinway, and others.
For anyone out there looking for their dream piano, Adrean recommends playing as many different pianos as possible until you find that one special instrument that truly speaks to you.
Thanks for watching Episode 1 of our new Artist Reviews series!

Very interesting review, I would love to see more of these videos but with musicians from different areas (classical, please). I played in a Shigeru Kawai once and it was amazing, but somehow I liked the Kawai GX-5 that was right next to it even more. Each instrument is unique and choosing the right one is a very personal thing. So being patient, testing a lot of options, and waiting for that one instrument that "grabs you" is really good advice.

I’d like to see more Artist Reviews. Is there a playlist on the Merriam channel?

[@JoseTorres-wp3qi]

Nice, very entertaining. Would love to see more of these interviews.

I tried one today and I fully understand what you mean! But the Yamaha S3X also gives me very good vibes. I am torn on which one to choose. They both tell me "I am the one!".

[@gustavogo2915]

Which one did you get?

[@furioercolessi]

@@gustavogo2915 The S3X with the SH3 silent system. The choice was really forced by the inability of Shigeru Kaway to supply a SK with the ATX4 installed. I am very happy with the S3X, it is a joy to play and I love the action. But perhaps the SK-2 has a bit more "personality", or possibly a sound slightly less "mainstream".
