The World's Most Precise Piano Action

The revolutionary Millennium III Upright Action represents the third evolution of piano touch.Combining modern material science with innovative new design concepts, Kawai has developed an action with a feel and consistency that is unmatched. ABS-Carbon

For the Millennium III Upright Action, Kawai scientists developed a new material called ABS-Carbon, created by the infusion of carbon fibres into ABS material. ABS-Carbon is incredibly strong and lightweight – properties that allowed Kawai to make the action lighter without sacrificing strength. The lighter design makes the Millennium III Upright Action exceptionally fast and effortless. The repetition and ease-of-playing is superb. Micro-Engineered Design

The Millennium III Upright Action features several core components that are redesigned with lighter mass and structural enhancements to optimize speed, repetition and control. Every exacting detail of the action was analyzed and adapted to create an intimate interface between the artist and the music. While the key weight is comparable to most other high-end upright action, the ease of expression is extraordinary.

 

The Millennium III upright action is fitted to the K2, K3, K5, K6 and K8 pianos.
