Yamaha DGCB Disklavier ENSPIRE ST Grand Piano
The Yamaha DGCB ENSPIRE ST Disklavier represents the meeting of traditional Yamaha grand piano craftsmanship and advanced digital performance technology.
At just 151cm in length, the DGCB is Yamaha’s most compact grand piano, designed to deliver the resonance, expressive character and responsive touch associated with a Yamaha grand while fitting comfortably into modern living spaces. The DGCB is crafted at Yamaha’s renowned Kakegawa Factory in Japan.
Finished in elegant Polished Ebony, this instrument makes a sophisticated centrepiece for the home while offering the additional versatility of the integrated Disklavier ENSPIRE ST system.
Yamaha Acoustic Grand Piano
The DGCB is built around a genuine Yamaha acoustic grand piano. Its compact 151cm design incorporates Yamaha’s grand piano engineering philosophy, including a back-post structure designed to efficiently project string vibrations throughout the body.
The result is a piano with impressive resonance, tonal balance and expressive control despite its compact dimensions.
Disklavier ENSPIRE ST
The integrated Disklavier ENSPIRE ST system adds sophisticated recording and playback capabilities to the acoustic piano.
A Disklavier uses precision optical sensors to capture the movement of the keys, hammers and pedals. During playback, the piano’s key and pedal drive systems reproduce the performance, allowing recorded performances to be experienced through the acoustic instrument itself.
This makes the DGCB Disklavier particularly versatile for:
- Recording your own performances
- Replaying performances through the acoustic piano
- Listening to professionally produced piano performances
- Home entertainment
- Music education and practice
- Demonstrations and performances
Compact Grand Piano Design
The DGCB measures approximately 151cm in depth and 147cm in width, making it particularly suitable for homes where space is limited but the presence and performance of a grand piano are still desired.
Yamaha describes the GCB as its smallest current grand piano, combining a compact footprint with the tonal depth and expressive capability of the Yamaha grand piano tradition.

A Grand Piano with an Extraordinary Difference
The Yamaha DGCB Disklavier offers far more than a traditional acoustic grand. It combines Yamaha’s renowned Japanese piano craftsmanship with technology that allows performances to be captured and recreated through the instrument.
For the pianist, it remains a genuine Yamaha acoustic grand. For the listener, it can become an automated performance instrument capable of bringing recorded music to life through the piano itself.
