Authorized Steinway Virtual Concert Grand Piano
The Authorized Steinway Virtual Concert Grand Piano from the company Garritan, is a sample-based software instrument developed in collaboration with Steinway & Sons. The Authorized Steinway Virtual Concert Grand Piano recreates the sound of the Steinway concert grand piano. The software comes in three versions: Professional, Standard and Basic. The Professional version is the Steinway concert grand piano from five different listening perspectives: that of the player from the piano bench; a classical recording; an under-the-lid; a stage; and a close audience perspective. The Standard version gives the under lid and classic perspectives. The Basic version is, according to Garritan, ideal for students, amateur musicians, and educators, and is a light version that gives a single perspective. The recording of the Steinway concert grand piano chosen for the sample set was made in Troy Music Hall in Rensselaer County, New York, United States.
