With the Poetry, KORG offers a very special digital piano that is aimed specifically at lovers of the music of the world-renowned composer, pianist and piano teacher Frédéric Chopin.
The idea behind the development of the Poetry is as unique as it is ingenious: What if you could experience Chopin's music exactly as he would have heard it when he composed it? The production of concert grand pianos has advanced significantly since Chopin's lifetime, which is why the sound of today's instruments can no longer be compared to that which he himself experienced. During his time in Paris, Chopin played a piano made by the traditional French manufacturer PLEYEL. For this reason, KORG went to great lengths to bring a PLEYEL piano from 1843, when Chopin was 33, to Japan, where specialists carefully restored it using special French parts and brought it as close to its original condition as possible. This 80-key instrument was then meticulously sampled in the authentic tuning of 430 Hz for the time and now forms the basis for the Poetry digital piano as PLEYEL sound .
But fans of contemporary piano sounds will also get their money's worth with the Poetry, because in addition to this truly historical sound , another, more modern one can also be found in the Poetry: the globally popular Italian concert grand piano that was used in the famous Chopin Competition in Warsaw. Thus, in addition to 28 other sounds / tones, the Poetry offers the authentic sound of a PLEYEL piano from Chopin's lifetime as well as that of a modern concert grand piano of today.
But the Poetry also has a lot to offer visually, as it is equipped with the unique color variant “Poetic Brown” with pronounced wood grain and gold-colored details and thus also externally based on the original PLEYEL piano from 1843, whose sound it contains.
The instrument is manufactured with the utmost care in Japan and is equipped with an excellent RH3 keyboard with 88 keys, hammer action and graduated weighting, which means that the keys in the lower registers offer a higher resistance than those in the higher registers, ensuring a particularly authentic concert grand piano experience.
The powerful stereo speaker system with 2 x 25 watts of power (RMS) provides a natural and dynamic sound full of expressiveness, as you would expect from an acoustic instrument .
Of course, the Poetry has three pedals with half-pedal support (damper, soft and sostenuto pedals) and thus offers countless possibilities for sound design while playing.
The instrument comes with 50 piano pieces by Chopin as demo songs , but you can also record your own playing on the instrument using the recording function with two parts (for left and right hand).
The integrated bluetooth audio function allows you to stream your favorite music to the Poetry's speaker system, while of course you can also play the instrument at the same time.
For practicing and piano lessons, there are two headphone outputs and a partner mode in which the keyboard is divided into two equal areas so that, for example, teachers and students can sit next to each other and have the same tonal range available.
As a particularly lovely detail, the Poetry also comes with a music book with 23 selected piano pieces by Chopin, so that nothing stands in the way of an authentic, historical piano experience.
