At home in Cottonland Castle, Bailey, his wife Yvonne, and their four children all enjoy the Disklavier. Both Hatch and Yvonne play piano and relax to holiday, easy listening, and classical disks, but their kids enjoy the Disklavier for another reason. "When they invite friends over for the first time, they pop a disk into the Disklavier," Bailey chuckles, "and tell their friends it's the 'ghost' of Cottonland Castle playing the piano!"

Rembrandt's at Bridgewater

ridgewater Place is an impressive 17-story office complex in Grand Rapids, MI, made all the more distinctive by the presence of a Yamaha Disklavier® GranTouch™ DGT7 piano in its atrium lobby. It was placed there earlier this year by Doug Snyder, vice president of Snyder's Keyboard World for the grand opening festivities of the new Rembrandt's at Bridgewater Place.

The Disklavier is a focal point in the lobby, enjoyed by clients and approximately 1,300 employees in the building. "The placement of the DGT7 in the atrium was a success," says Yamaha District Manager Denny Glander, noting the building owner purchased the instrument.

"It's a nice touch in the atrium, because people hear and see it as they come upstairs to my restaurant," explains Jennifer Russell, president of Rembrandt's. "It's just amazing how many people stop and look at it." Upstairs at Rembrandt's, Russell has a Yamaha C3 conservatory grand piano in the cocktail lounge and a Disklavier MX1 in the 400-seat banquet room to further enhance the fine dining ambiance of her restaurant. During Grand Opening festivities last spring, the pianos were played with a 13-piece jazz orchestra and during a live radio broadcast from the cocktail lounge
