Steinway Gallery Melbourne proudly hosted an extraordinary evening to introduce SPIRIOCAST technology to Australia. This groundbreaking innovation from Steinway & Sons brings live, real-time performances to life on the SPIRIO | r piano, offering a new level of musical experience for audiences.
The evening began with a welcome speech from Mark O’Connor, CEO of Steinway Galleries Australia. He thanked the attendees and introduced the SPIRIOCAST technology, highlighting the unique features of the Steinway SPIRIO | r piano.
Following his remarks, the night continued with a captivating performance by Australian pianist Kevin Suherman. His artistry and technique beautifully showcased the expressive range of the Steinway Grand piano, setting the tone for a night of musical brilliance.
The highlight of the event was an exceptional SPIRIOCAST performance by globally renowned Steinway Artist Lang Lang, streamed live from Beijing. Through SPIRIOCAST, every nuanced keystroke from Lang Lang was perfectly replicated in real-time on the SPIRIO | r piano in Melbourne, allowing the audience to experience his performance as though they were sitting in the concert hall with him in Beijing. This remarkable technology bridges the gap between artist and audience, regardless of the distance.
The evening concluded with an inspiring rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Joshua Han, the 2024 Australian Piano Award First Prize recipient. His precise technique and expressive playing stunned the audience, leaving them in awe of his outstanding talent.
The event was a perfect blend of innovation, elegance, and music. We would like to extend heartfelt thanks to all of the guests who joined us for this memorable evening.
