Three Legendary Pianos.
Their individual character and
tone faithfully recreated.

CELVIANO Grand Hybrid reproduces even the subtle nuances of the world’s most respected pianos.
Three pianos that originate in Berlin, Hamburg and Vienna were chosen for this project.
CASIO has painstakingly researched and analyzed the unique characteristics of each piano.
CELVIANO Grand Hybrid delivers brilliant sound of these pianos reproduced with CASIO’s advanced technology. It will provide the experience of owning three of the finest pianos on earth.

The AiR Grand Sound Source recreates the grand piano sound experience

CASIO’s AiR (Acoustic and intelligent Resonator) Grand Sound Source is designed to meticulously convey every aspect of the grand piano sound. Smooth dynamics between soft and loud playing are made possible with CASIO’s Multi- Dimensional Morphing technology. Damper and sympathetic string resonance is also faithfully recreated. Even the mechanical sounds of the grand piano are also provided to create a deep sense of realism. Press the damper pedal, and hear the sound of the felt as it lifts away from the strings. Completing the experience, you can even adjust the lid position, which will affect the acoustics of the piano as if you had adjusted the lid on an acoustic grand piano. Closing your eyes, you will feel like sitting at a 9-foot concert grand.

More natural sustain that improves chord resonance

More gradual decay of notes after sounding, individually optimized for each of the “Three Legendary Pianos”.

The new Grand Acoustic System delivers a more powerful and dynamic playing feel

Casio has developed a new dedicated speaker system for the CELVIANO Grand Hybrid that reproduces the characteristics of sound emanating upwards and downwards from an acoustic grand piano. This enables powerful and dynamic expression from rich, stately bass to bright mid-to-high sounds. The four-channel audio system incorporates six speakers, carefully positioned in a structural design that releases sound outward from the interior of the body. The system delivers the same sound field experience a player would enjoy while playing an acoustic grand piano.

Your performance demands
authenticity. It begins
at the first touch.

The player’s movement is transformed into music with many important factors. The most tangible factor is the keys.
CELVIANO Grand Hybrid delivers authenticity from the first touch.

The revolutionary Natural Grand Hammer Action keyboard is made with high-quality wooden keys. Its mechanism incorporates a hammer action that follows the same path of motion as in a grand piano. When the lid is lifted, you can see the hammers in motion through a clear panel as you play. Going beyond a standard acoustic mechanism, this action allows faster note repetition than acoustic pianos, while maintaining a true piano touch.

Hammer Action derived
from the response of a grand piano

To achieve the level of responsiveness of a grand piano, CASIO intensively researched the action of grand piano hammers. The result is a mechanism with the same principles as a grand piano. Using precise measurements in conjunction with wooden keys, this mechanism delivers the exact response you would expect when playing a concert grand. Every nuance of the player’s touch is conveyed.

Precision-made wooden keys,
faithful to traditional designs

The materials and manufacturing processes adopted to make the keyboard are those used for grand pianos. Higher-quality wood was carefully chosen, dried, machined and finished. The finish was completed at the same level as acoustic grand pianos, providing a welcome and familiar touch. The feel of these keys contributes to players’ comfort and confidence.

The Grand Hybrid experience goes far beyond playing piano

Play a legendary space

CELVIANO Grand Hybrid includes a Hall Simulator featuring numerous world-class performance venues. Using advanced analysis and signal processing, CASIO has recreated the acoustic characteristics of renowned concert halls, opera houses, cathedrals and other performance spaces around the world. You can instantly select one of these settings, creating an immersive atmosphere for your performance.

Play with a symphony orchestra

CELVIANO Grand Hybrid’s Concert Play feature gives you the role of solo pianist with an orchestral performance. The sound system plays the orchestral part accompanying you. Works by Tchaikovsky, Pachelbel, Smetana and others are featured. The tempo of these pieces can be slowed down to facilitate practice.

Play a moment in time

The GP-510BP model has an additional feature allowing the player to design or select Scenes. You will enjoy customizing your own Scenes by selecting a type of piano, a Hall Simulation and any desired effects. CASIO has also created several inspirational preset Scenes. These thoughtfully designed examples let you interact with the history of piano music. Select the name of a famous composer, and you will be presented with an instrument customized to suit their music and a venue where their music might have been performed.
