An inspired new design, born of a century of keyboard expertise
One of the world's most delightful instruments, the celesta brings a unique and irreplaceably 'celestial' voice to full concert orchestration. New Yamaha developments -including a grand piano style keyboard and action, and improvements in tone generating components- now have brought mastery of the celesta within range of any competent keyboardist, and raised the instrument itself to a new and higher level of performance.
