How "fast" can a beginner expect to play? Chopin's "Minute Waltz", for example, can be played on most any upright by an experienced pianist, and at full tempo. The "flight of the bumble bee", though, might be a tad more difficult on an upright.

Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2004 07:01:08 -0400 Hi ! Yesterday I had a young man come into my repair shop asking "piano questions". He needed answers to some confusing statements made to him by a saleman. The question...Is it true you can play faster on a Yamaha than other brands. Seemed like a specific slam with other dealers. I dont sell new pianos..but offered advice. Make sure the pianos you are compairing are in the same level. I told him I couldnt play very fast anyway. He wanted a "nice grand" to practice his grade one lessons. By the way, he was a young Dr. working at the big hospitol.
