Topic: Three cheers for the new Kremsegg #2 Pleyel from 1825

I own Pianoteq 5 Standard, and have not purchased the Kremsegg collections, so I only have the limited demo versions of the Kremsegg instruments available. Recently on two occasions I had a different friend over who is a professional keyboardist, and I let them play through some of the instrument models. They both fell in love with the 1825 Pleyel. "OMG, that's Chopin", they each said gleefully, and started playing Chopin with a delighted look on their faces.

I predict that the Kremsegg #2 I. Pleyel from 1825 is going to be a big hit.

One of my friends was playing a Chopin piece written in another key and transposing it to C major in his head so he could minimize running into the missing notes!

Neither of my two friends have ever played a virtual instrument on a PC or Mac before. Maybe they will buy their own copies of Pianoteq with the Kremsegg #2 and we will have made converts out of them.
