YAMAHA CLAVINOVA: THE GIFT OF MUSIC FOR MOM

	The Yamaha Clavinova is the perfect blend of style and technology. Shown here in the CVP series, the Clavinova comes in a variety of styles and finishes to fit any décor and budget.

BUENA PARK, CA (May 7, 2004)—Mother's Day is Sunday, May 9, and instead of giving Mom the standard gifts like flowers, candy or perfume, why not surprise her with something she'll get enjoyment out of for a lifetime? Need a hint? The Yamaha Clavinova digital piano!

The Clavinova is a digital instrument that faithfully reproduces hundreds of other instrument voices as well as a classical grand piano. Using pre-recorded disks, Clavinova users can enjoy the artistry of their favorite musicians right at home, or play the instrument's amazing Natural Keyboard themselves. Special software and "Follow Lights" above each key make it easy for anyone to learn to play, even absolute beginners. Mom will be playing in no time at all!

	The Clavinova provides the latest in piano technology as well as more than 800 built-in voices, guide lamps and karaoke features.

The Clavinova is loaded with innovative features including a fantastic karaoke option, ideal for parties and family fun. All you have to do is insert a disk into the drive on the piano and use the microphone to sing along to hundreds of pop, rock, jazz and Broadway hits like "Lean on Me," "King of the Road," the theme to Beauty and the Beast or hundreds more. Some models even offer the Vocal Harmony feature, which turns one voice into three—or transforms a user's normal voice into a "chipmunk," an opera star or Barry White. With Total Pitch Correction, the Clavinova can even adjust the singer's pitch, putting a monotone into perfect tune, while the Vocal CueTIME feature automatically speeds up or slows down the musical accompaniment to match the pace of the singing.

Clavinovas are available in a variety of models to fit every décor and every budget. Yamaha Clavinova digital pianos are available at authorized Yamaha music retailers.
