Do you remember those old pianos you can hear in survival horror video games such as Resident Evil and Alone in the Dark ? Well, the 50s piano does exactly that. It is also perfect for any genre that requires an authentic old sound (jazz, classic etc.)
Our Celesta is composed of several patches crafted from the recording of a very old Mustel full of character. The patches are inspired by famous soundtracks such as Harry Potter and Hook to name a few. They are designed to sound great out of the box and to easily integrate orchestral mixes. The various options offer a lot of flexibility…
We recorded an old Jeu de Timbre created by Auguste Mustel the inventor of the Celesta. Also known as the Keyboard Glockenspiel, it was used in many masterpieces : Daphnis et Chloé (Ravel), La Mer (Debussy), l’Apprenti Sorcier (Dukas) to name a few.
