In today’s video, we’ll be looking at a fine German handcrafted grand piano as we explore the Schimmel Classic C189. This is a gorgeous instrument that we’re so excited to dive into here.

Schimmel is a German piano manufacturer, like Seiler, that was fairly recently purchased by an Asian piano maker (Pearl River), resulting in a major cash infusion and rejuvenation. The C189 comes in at just over 6’2”, and is as the name would suggest, classic Schimmel. Schimmel has done a great job at creating a thread that carries through both their uprights and grands, delivering a unified experience across their instruments. There’s a very specific combination of attack, cabinet resonance and upper mid-range shimmer that jumps out across all of their Classic series uprights and grands. Piano Sound While the C189 comes in around 6 feet, when you get behind one, it sounds like you’re playing an instrument twice the size - the projection, sustain and blend are very intense. Really, it feels like you’re painting with broad harmonic strokes as soon as you sit down at one of these. The cabinet resonance is exceptional, and it’s not a surprise since this is an area Schimmel has spent a ton of time on developing. The rim activation as such is just excellent. Another big reason for the specific sound is duplex scaling behind the bridge, and essentially triplex scaling at the front. For people that really like feeling close to a piano as on a great upright and a blend of lush harmonies, the C189 will feel right at home for you. There’s a brassy section in the bass register that sounds like a Bosendorfer, before the tone opens up into a more bell-like sound. The break in the bass register is tremendously smooth, which we always appreciate over here. The tenor and mid ranges have a really nice attack and great sustain, as does the treble. The treble is less colourful than some other pianos in the price category, such as a Shigeru Kawai SK3, but it’s got tons of shimmer and is quite clear. Action Schimmel uses mineral keytops, and it’s quite a unique texture to feel on your fingers. The bottom of the keybed feels a little bit harder than some, which makes it feel like you’ve reached the end point of the dynamic range a little bit sooner. This means controlling the C189 might take a little bit of time to get used to, but at the same time, this also makes it quite effortless to get ringing. Other Observations Another unique thing about the C189 is that Schimmel shapes the pedals a little bit differently, and the resistance of the sustain requires a little more force to operate than most other grands. There’s also less depth to the pedal which jumped out to us at first. This is a beautiful instrument, what else can we say. If you’re in the Toronto area, don’t hesitate to give us a call to set up an appointment to come and play it!
