The corporate history of Kurzweil Music Systems begins in 1976 with a meeting between Stevie Wonder and Raymond “Ray” Kurzweil . After completing his studies, he invented the world's first reading machine, which enabled blind people to have printed text read aloud automatically and Stevie Wonder was the first customer for this device.
Over time, the two became good friends and had many conversations, including about areas of application in the music industry that were possible thanks to technology .
This challenge piqued the interest of Raymond, who shortly afterwards founded the company Kurzweil Music Systems in 1983. In the same year, a first prototype was presented at the NAMM, which resulted in the first examples of the K250 and was delivered a year later. At the beginning there was a lot of skepticism as to whether an electronic device could really replicate the sound of an acoustic piano, but after some A/B comparisons with real pianists, the answer was clear: “Yes!” But what made the K250 so special? The synthesizer came with an 88-key weighted keyboard, 12-note polyphony and 2 MB of ROM on which the internal samples were stored. These features were considered special for the time.
However, Kurzweil did not rest on its laurels and instead continuously advanced the technology over the years. Of course, this was also noticed in musical circles, which made the Kurzweil controllers and synthesizers welcome guests on stages and studios around the world.
In 1990 the company was taken over by the Korean piano maker Young Chang, who continues to produce the instruments in the USA to this day in the same high quality.
Real bestsellers and crowd pullers from Kurzweil include the two flagships K2700 and the brand new SP7 Grand . With their 88 weighted keys of the hammer action keyboards, authentic sounds / tones and professional features, they know how to delight studio and live keyboardists alike.
