BACKCasio and Bechstein announce new Grand Hybrid models
Casio Music UK, in collaboration with C Bechstein, has today announced the release of two new models in the Celviano Grand Hybrid range. The GP-310 and GP-510 models boast a new speaker system providing enhanced sound projection and reinforced bass reproduction. An improved touch response offers greater control of sound and more dynamic contrast. The award-winning Celviano Grand Hybrid pianos feature full length wooden keys and a moving hammer mechanism, as found in acoustic pianos, combined with the benefits of digital technology. Pianists can choose from three traditional grand piano sounds: Berlin, Hamburg and Vienna. The new models require no maintenance of their sounds or action.

L’orchestre de l’Opéra de Massy fête ses 30 ans en fanfare
L’ensemble symphonique rayonne dans le département mais aussi dans toute la France et à l’étranger. « 30 ans! Que de chemin parcouru, que d’émotions partagées et de perspectives pour l’avenir, s’émeuvent Philippe Bardou et Dominique Rouits, respectivement président et directeur artistique de l’orchestre de l’Opéra de Massy.» Cet ensemble symphonique a été fondé en 1989 par Dominique Rouits, l’année de la chute du Mur de Berlin. Trente ans plus tard, il est toujours à la baguette, désormais assisté de Constantin Rouits. Ayant trouvé résidence dès sa création à l’ Opéra de Massy, des liens plus qu’étroits se sont tissés avec ce lieu.
Massy Opera Orchestra celebrates its 30th anniversary
The symphonic ensemble shines in the department but also throughout France and abroad. “30 years! Philippe Bardou and Dominique Rouits, respectively president and artistic director of the Massy Opera Orchestra, are moved by the progress made, the shared emotions and the prospects for the future.” This symphonic ensemble was founded in 1989 by Dominique Rouits, the year the Berlin Wall fell. Thirty years later, he is still at the helm, now assisted by Constantin Rouits. Having found residence since its creation at the Massy Opera House, more than close links have been forged with this place.
