Yamaha NP-15 'Piaggero' portable keyboard - Black

Introducing the Yamaha NP-15 'Piaggero' portable keyboard

Improving on the already popular Yamaha NP-12, the NP-15 is the perfect beginner keyboard. At just over a metre in length with 61-keys, it’s lightweight frame and smaller footprint is ideal for schools or homes with limited space.

The NP15 is not only light under the arm, but is also lighter under the fingers so younger players, beginners, or anyone concerned that finger strength will be a barrier can still have fun playing the piano. Featuring a pair of speakers surprisingly powerful for its compact size, you are also able to plug headphones in for silent practice.

A minimalist design is intuitive to operate, from the 15 different voices to the inbuilt metronome and 6 reverb options, everything you need is at your fingertips. With the option of mains or battery operation, you have the flexibility to take it with you anywhere.

Compact and lightweight design

At just 5.2 kgs, the NP-15 is extremely lightweight, even for a portable keyboard. Its small size also makes it easy to set up and pack away without any extra hassle.

Powerful sound

The Piaggero features the sound of a Yamaha full concert grand and was sampled with a bright, transparent tone, a spacious treble, and an overall solid sonic feel.

Yamaha's acoustic technology gives this keyboard resonant, grand piano style bass notes and beautifully detailed treble notes, producing a more powerful sound than you would expect considering its compact size.

Headphone connectivity for silent practice

Plug your headphones in and play silently at any time of day or night. Also a great feature for the classroom, each student can practice without disturbing their neighbouring classmates.

Minimalist design with optimised functionality

The basic, modern design is reminiscent of an acoustic piano, with only the most necessary functions featured on the control panel. Giving you form and function in equal measure, everyone will find this piano easy to use.

The simple-to-use features make it easy for anyone to operate, no matter how much experience you have with digital keyboards.

Light keyboard feel, ideal for beginners

If you are just starting on your piano journey, an NP series piano is a perfect option for you. The lightweight keys make playing simple and less tiring on the fingers so you can practice for longer.

Even with the softer touch, the Piaggero's sound will change realistically in response to the force of your keystrokes, enabling you to enjoy expressive playing while experience the piano-like feel of this new keyboard.
