Played on a recently fully restored (not rebuilt or refurbished) 1900 Bechstein model IV (220cm). This was after the second voicing session of the new hammer felt and a full day of regulation.
Still more voicing and regulation coming up in the next couple of weeks, but now I can hear that the character of this instrument is gorgeous and unique.
Recorded with an Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II, audio provided by a pair of Rode NT5 cardioid capsules in NOS-configuration, downmixed with an additional pair of ambient omni stereo capsules. No postprocessing and video editing done thanks to ffmpeg.
