Yamaha CEL56C 56 Note Celesta W/Cover

The Yamaha CEL56C Symphonic Celesta is Yamaha’s professional model celesta, setting it apart with the inclusion of a soft pedal and higher range of C40-G95, for a total of 56 keys. The first single-layer action mechanism provides a uniform feel across the entire keyboard, for better performance in an ensemble setting. This series of celestas are also lighter in weight than previous models, as it has less moving parts due to a different design to the resonator box.

These instruments utilize a grand piano action that makes smooth playing possible and allows for easy adjustment and calibration. The damper pedal is situated slightly right of center, exactly where the piano player would expect. The keyboard height is equal to that of a piano and has a narrow key slip leading to a more comfortable posture and hand positioning. The music rest is ideally positioned to permit clear visibility of the score and the conductor simultaneously. Finally, a folding cover protects and preserves the keys.
