With the Schimmel C121 Tradition you get an elegant piano of high quality. Pianos are made with great care and love in the Schimmel factory in Braunschweig, Germany. A high tonal quality and a refined touch are key features and Schimmel achieves this time and time again. The Classic series has won numerous awards for sound and performance as well as shape and design for a reason. With a height of 121 centimetres, the ultimate living room piano in the higher segment. Make your most beautiful piano dream come true with the C121 piano!

This C121 piano is the Tradition model but is also available in an Elegance Manhattan version. The Tradition is a bit more classic with more curves, while the Elegance piano is a bit tighter and more modern.

QUALITY OF THE SOUNDBOARD

One of the most essential parts of a piano is the soundboard. This bottom is largely responsible for the tonal quality of the piano and therefore Schimmel attaches great importance to this part. Years of experience have contributed to an extravagant shape that makes the soundboard extraordinarily large compared to the height of the instrument. Schimmel has done this with all models in the Classic and Konzert series and results in a greater volume with superior tonal distribution. Of course, the higher the piano is, the bigger the soundboard becomes. With a height of 121cm, this Schimmel C121 is of a very average height and therefore ideal for the living room. With the C126 and C130 models, Schimmel also has higher models available in the Classic series, while there is also a lower version with the C116. Not only the size has an influence, the curves and thicknesses also influence the sound and these technical aspects have been worked out in detail. This results in ideal vibration characteristics over a wide spectrum of frequencies and with the characteristic palette of rich tonal colors and powerful deep bass tones, excellent tuning stability of the piano is ensured.

But not only the size of the soundboard is of influence. Another crucial point is the quality of the spruce wood used. Specific climatic conditions influence the wood quality. A tree in a higher area grows more slowly, so that it has smaller annual rings and therefore contains few disturbances in the grain. This makes the wood slightly stronger and gets a stiffer character, which has a positive effect on the sound. For this reason, Schimmel only uses exclusively selected spruce wood from the higher Bavarian forest areas.

Silent System?

Would you like this beautiful Schimmel piano with Silent System? That is possible and we offer two options for this. The first option is to order the Schimmel Twintone Silent System.This system was designed by Schimmel himself and is installed in the factory in Braunschweig. As a second option, you can choose for the Excellent AdSilent System,which is built in by our own piano technicians. We offer the silent systems in combination with a piano with extra advantageous bundle discounts.

What is a Silent System? The Silent System allows you to play your acoustic piano with headphones while remaining completely silent to your environment. When the system is switched on, a built-in rail blocks the hammers from hitting the strings, so that no sound is produced. Each key has sensors that convert the touch into a digital sound that is reproduced through the headphones. This way you can play the piano for hours at a time when it is less appreciated by your environment.

HISTORY OF SCHIMMEL

The story of Schimmel started in 1885 near Leipzig. In a modest workshop of approximately 13 square meters, Wilhelm Schimmel produced his first pianos and here the foundations were laid for a leading company that has now survived for four generations. In 1897 it was decided to move to a larger factory and developments followed each other in rapid succession. The first pianos were sold internationally and some royalties also belonged to the customer group. The first gold medals in prestigious exhibitions were won. In 1931 the step was made to the current factory in Braunschweig and that was a golden step. At the time of the division of Germany, it belonged to economically better West Germany, while the old factory was located in East Germany. The war was survived and in 1958 Schimmel was the best-selling piano worldwide. The family business is now in the hands of the fourth generation. The years of experience and accumulated expertise, combined with a modern vision, means that Schimmel still belongs to the world top. Great sounding and playing pianos are the result of this.
