The marvelous sound of the Synchron Fazioli F212, meticulously sampled at our Synchron Stage Vienna. Unlike its big brother F308 that was captured in the grandeur of Stage A, the F212 was recorded in the smaller, dryer Stage B, which turned out to be the perfect match for Fazioli’s classic mid-sized piano. In this intimate setting, with more direct signals and less room sound, every nuance of its rich sound shines, from the powerful bass to the warm mid-range to the crisp upper registers.
As with the C. Bechstein upright piano that is available as the German Upright 1904, this Fazioli F212 is owned by pianist and film composer Mick Baumeister, co-creator of the Hornberg breath controller. Mick acquired this Fazioli 212 after an intense testing phase in 1998, and it was set up to meet the musician’s requirements by Mr Paolo Fazioli himself.
