Historical Recordings

Imagine....

Sitting next to one of the great piano virtuosi from the golden age as they give a performance that has earned them a place among the greatest of all time. At the Central Coast Piano Studio, hearing and experiencing (live!) hundreds of the worlds most rare recordings is now a reality thanks to the ground breaking work of Peter Phillips whose piano roll conversions have made him a leading international expert in the field.

A rare window into the past....

Thousands of historical recordings have sat dormant for decades as piano rolls but have now been digitally converted so that they can be enjoyed on the modern Disklavier Piano.
