Teacher wants acoustic only

by Michal
(Palo Alto, CA)

Several teachers I have tried to engage after ordering but not yet receiving, my Yamaha Clavinova CVP 407 RSW, said they would only teach on an acoustic piano because of the tonal differences depending on how hard or softly you press the keys, etc. Have I made a mistake in ordering the Clavinova CVP, or does it overcome this problem in some way?

Choice of Teachers vs Keyboard
by: Alfred

Dear Michal: I believe you must have reviewed comments about your CVP 407 before placing your order. I also believe you made a good choice.
What I find hard to believe is the reticence of the teachers who prefer only acoustic pianos! Their feelings regarding tonal quality, touch sensitivity of keys etc. is somewhat narrow-minded. Your Unit will "overcome those problems" Basically Music is Music no matter how it is taught. Look for a qualified teacher WHO PLAYS BOTH THE ACOUSTIC AND KEYBOARD VERSIONS OF PIANO and forget about the others!! Good luck.
