The thing is: This is actually how the great composers intended their pieces to sound. This is THE sound Liszt heard when he performed that piece.

No Liszt was in the romantic era and the modern piano as we know it today had been invented then

[@katherinehyk]

Surely the older piano does not sound as bright as the modern day grand pianos, but the mellow sound really gives the music a different character!! Especially the bass line is singing out sooo much more and the top voices are more gentle even at the really intense part when it's normally very dead loud and sharp. must be fun trying on an artifact haha

[@wandajames143]

KMPZ I lived in London and I tell you as an American I was so happy to get back and kiss the ground here. There really isn’t hatred for Americans like it seemed Brits have for the French, but there’s a real lack of freedom. It’s an odd feeling. Could’ve just been my experience, I could be totally wrong.

I don't get why modern grand piano's have such heavy key touch compared to these older versions.. It makes it so much easier to play, I totally agree. You could actually play those fast ass Liszt and Alkan pieces on this nicely

[@GabsARV]

They depend on the size and how the manufacturer makes the hammers feel the way they wanted. Usually longer grand pianos like the Steinway D require heavier force whereas shorter grand pianos don't require as much force. You can easily hit triple "F" on a baby grand whereas on a concert grand you may have to exert more force. Though I may be wrong on all of this. These are just from my experience on playing different pianos from a hotel's upright to getting a chance to play on a Steinway D.

I don"t comment on videos at all. But i really enjoyed the video. The playing and your personality really make for a interesting combination and a nice time watching this video. Thank you!

[@Johannes_Brahms65]

Modern piano's have more volume. A deeper key gives more energy to the hammer. I guess the modern hammer strikes a thicker and therefore more tensed string which results in a more stretched out sound, 'thicker'. Today there is so much noise in the word and our ears seem to be wanting more volume in music. This is what i think. By the way in Amsterdam there's a guy who restores and sells erard piano's. He's called Frits Janmaat.

[@Melchiorblade7]

That particular Erard sounds so dreamy and beautiful. It really captures romantic period piano music perfectly, and dare i say it, more authentically than many modern grands do.

[@frazzledude]

Erard was a French piano maker. There were three well known French piano makers over the years: Erard, Pleyel, and Gaveau. There are several reasons why the treble sustain on pianos of that era is so short. First, modern pianos use an overstrung design where the treble and bass strings pass over each other. This allows for longer strings in a piano of the same length. The Erard piano in this video is a straight strung piano, an older design with shorter strings. Second, modern pianos use duplex scaling where the secondary parts of the strings contribute to the sound of the notes. And third, soundboard and bridge design has greatly improved in the last eighty years or so. It is much more difficult to make a soundboard that will project high frequency treble sounds than a soundboard that projects low frequency bass sounds. Even today the major piano makers are still improving their soundboards. Last year, in 2017, Fazioli introduced a new improved soundboard design. It makes their pianos sound even better than Fazioli pianos from just a few years ago.

[@mevans4715]

frazzledude don't forget Boisselot et Fils, the French piano manufacturer who introduced the sostenuto pedal in 1844 at the French Industrial Exhibition in Paris. Boisselot was Lizst's favorite maker in France.

[@frazzledude]

mevans4715 You are right. Thanks for reminding me. Boisselot changed their name in the early 1900s and then went completely out of business when world war 1 began. So they are rare and obscure today. But at the peak of their business Boisselot produced between 300 and 400 hundred pianos per year -- a large production volume in a time when pianos were built and crafted entirely by hand without power tools.

[@MaurizioMGavioli]

Would you mind defining "better"? I recently had the occasion to visit the Collezione Laura Alvini in the Parma Conservatory, where I could hear several historic pianos from XVIII c. fortepiani to mid XIX Erard's and, to my (surely distorted) ear, the sound was getting worse and worse (murkier and duller) with the passing of time... So, "better" is highly relative.

[@ryano.5149]

@@MaurizioMGavioli I think the age of the piano has something to do with it as well. You can't engineer the effects of thousands of hours of music played through a soundboard. My old piano is a 1966 Janssen baby grand I picked up for a song. (Ha!) It rivals new Steinways in tone, if not necessarily build quality. You can't engineer 52 years of use into a new piano!

[@RogueCylon]

frazzledude yeah, I think people know how to google...

[@maywong1375]

I used to be able to recite this whole piece when I was 16. I have heard many versions by modern pianists, but Tiffany's version is, by far, the most romantic and really befits the title of the piece which is, Dream of Love. Good work Tiffany !

[@crigsbe]

🥰🥰🥰 Tiffany, you are very charming. Your talking is mesmerizing me. Thank you very much. Keep going strong ! 🥰🥰🥰

[@TrinkBruder]

As a piano technician I can tell you what you are experiencing is a difference in action geometry on modern grand pianos vs. historical grand pianos. A standard measurement with action geometry is the distance a key moves vs. the distance a hammer moves when striking a key. Modern standards are going to create a piano in which the key moves farther as the hammer rises, a ratio typically 5 to 1, while earlier pianos are likely to have keys that don't move as far to raise the hammer to "let-off," a word I am reluctant to use. It is more understandable if I say the hammer raises to the string. On earlier pianos, we are looking at action ratios closer to 7 to 1, 8:1, 9:1. That is the difference you felt. Oh yeah, and that is the best I ever heard you play.

[@tobiashofer4935]

It´s hard to play grand pianos with such a long ratio. I once worked on an old Pleyel where originally a self playing mechanic (don´t know the english term) was installed and if my memory is right it was a ratio 9:1 but that was in 2012 so maybe I´m wrong but the keys were very long. The sound was incredible (maybe because of the extra resonance)! Not that Pleyel was a bad manufacturer in the first place. Sorry english bad mothertounge not

[@tobiashofer4935]

[@raphkosta]

@@Galantski lol you seem to know him personally

[@BingDwenDwen]

​@@Galantski A Famous madman that is. Nietzsche was a philosopher and Tiffany happens to study philosophy, so the circle comes round for her, which is especially amazing. Genius people often borderlines madness, thats why they can think of innovative things that normal people cannot, so be glad that mad people exist. It is very stigmatizing and discriminating when you depict someone out of the ordinary as not normal, and everybody who do act within the same norm are sane people, who says? Are people who act the same as anyone else, is that not mad concept in itself? We need to stop stereotyping people who supposedly have a handicap as not normal, for they too have their value. I am amazed that concert pianists like Tiffany are able to play the difficult classical pieces. You can say they are mad to put so much time into learning such pieces, its torture for some to endure such training. But aren't we glad that these mad people exist, as we "normal" people don't have that ability to do what they do.

[@markhughes7927]

When Wagner was in Lucerne he was in exile and a wanted man: he had been one of the ring-leaders of the Dresden uprising and at least one of his close associates in the event was behind bars. The Wesendoncks were business people with interests in the USA and they were great in kindness to Wagner allowing him to live in this little house next to theirs. Mathilde was a simple, kind, and deep soul, and appealed to the very depths of Wagner’s being, and the unconsummatable love that was suspended between them inspired the Tristan and Isolde drama to be written. Thanks Tiffany for your lovely playing and observations.
