Sure wish I could speak German. Outstanding demonstration, though.

Yes, Gary. Peter Baartmans is my favorite Yamaha demonstrator. Not only is he a fine musician, he also comes across as a nice human being.

The guy is amazing. And I thought Martin Harris was king of the hill. Not so sure, now.

Peter Baartmans has always been a great player, (Although I preferred him on Kurzweil) but the demo is just the standard Genos demo that has been used all over the world, so nothing really new, and it just becomes boring after the first few times. (If you want to hear the demonstrators at their best, try and get to the many events where they just play (Usually in a late night bar setting) as that is where the magic really occurs)

So does Peter..
Its half German, half Dutch..
Its quite funny if you speak both languages.

Michel Voncken used to do much in GErman
But he no longer works for Yamaha

In the end, language doesn't really matter
Its about the music..

Again, I have to say that Genos is the best sounding arranger from Yamaha so far. (Also look pretty good)
And yes, Peter Baartmans make it shine.
Noticed that the public, as usual, are well grown people.
Don't think I could see any below 60?

Mike he's the real deal, very down to earth. I was fortunate enough to meet him and attend a Clavinova CVP 709 workshop in Orlando, Floirda in 2015. He and product manager Ben Harrison were there and all 5 of us enjoyed the workshop, they even bought us all coffee. He played a fantastic rendition of "It's Impossible," he started it just playing piano solo then turned on the arranger features of the CVP709.

What I love about peter baartmans is that he is not just brilliant and musical player, but also knows how to bring out each nuance of the instrument he is playing. On the keyboard which could only come about from really spending many hours studying the instrument and then replicating it and his expressions on the arranger. So many demonstrators are great musicians but really have no clue how to bring out the best from arranger keyboard.

Honestly I personally love watching Peter play,...but is he the best demonstrator? In that respect I would say for my needs when watching a demo not so much. I would rather see all the features "thoroughly demonstrated" in more detail then just listening to a great player of which many watching or listening couldn't come close to ever playing like that and this benefits no one. Instead if you can show people who are potential buyers what the "average player" would be able to do with the instrument and make them say to themselves..."Hey that's interesting I think I can do that at home" it would make them more inclined to purchase the KB. Otherwise your just listening to a nice concert,.... why not show younger new players what can be done regarding today's music styles too to get them interested? I think Yamaha's market strategy to older folks will shoot them in the foot this time around, let's hope now......

all the best.
