Galaxy III Piano's takes this Grand Piano Collection to a new level.<b>- Galaxy II Vienna Grand -</b>Galaxy III's Vienna Grand is comprised of sampling a Bosendorfer Imperial 290 grand piano. Established by Ignaz Bosendorfer in 1828, Bosendorfer is the oldest piano manufacturer still in production and has a history of constructing some of the worlds finest instruments. The Model 290 Imperial, a 9'6" grand piano, is famous for its powerful soundboard and its extended keyboard; going as low as a bottom C0, making a full eight octave range of 97 keys.
