The Pleyel pianoforte is inseparably linked with the name of Chopin. He, the greatest composer ever of music for pianoforte, held this instrument to be the “non plus ultra” (the most excellent), saying that it suited his artistic demands better than Erard\u2019s instrument.<\/p>\n

The characteristic sound of the Pleyel piano in the Romantic period is determined by the delicacy and clarity of its sonority.<\/p>\n

The action of this instrument follows the lines of the English model, but with different parameters and ratios between the various elements; and \u2013 unlike the pianos built in England during the same period \u2013 it is lighter and more sensitive.<\/p>\n

When pressing the keys of an instrument with English or Viennese action, the pianist has the clear and immediate sensation of pushing the hammer against the string, while in modern Erard-derived piano action this sensation is less noticeable.<\/p>\n
