CELESTA AUDIO SAMPLES
Listen to the heavenly sounds of the celesta. Here you will find celesta sound samples from different musical eras and the most famous celesta parts.
The Spanish pianist Celia García-García has recorded famous piano pieces on a Schiedmayer-Celesta. The exceptional sound of the celesta instrument brings new colours into the music. The famous works of Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Gershwin and others have never been heard – an absolute rarity on the record market!
