With a beautiful mid-range and a light twinkle in the high end the Yamaha C7 is an excellent choice for blues and folksy music especially old American classics. It offers a unique blend of smoothness and character that practically beg you to throw in a few jazzy ornaments here and there. While perfectly suitable for orchestral writing this piano shines in genres like stride and ragtime.
