The C sus 4 chord contains the notes C, F and G. It is produced by taking the 1 (root), 4 and 5 of the C Major scale. It is essentially an C Major chord, with the 3rd (E) taken out and the 4th (F) added in. By omitting the 3rd and adding the 4th, the chord feels ‘suspended‘. The 4th creates a feeling of tension, which feels resolved when the chord moves to the standard Major chord (bringing the 3rd back in). To demonstrate this, try the following chord progression:

C Major – C sus 4 – C Major

Just by strumming those three chords once each, you will hear the the tension that is created by moving to the C sus 4 chord. You will also hear the resolution that is created by moving from the sus chord back to the Major chord. C sus 4 is often used as a way of adding flavour to the C Major chord.

With only a few exceptions, all Kawai acoustic grand pianos are made in Kawai’s renowned Ryuyo Piano Factory located near Hamamatsu, Japan. The Ryuyo factory is one of the most advanced piano-building facilities of its kind. It combines the values of “old world craftsmanship” and “leading-edge technology” to create instruments of exceptional quality that provide the best of both worlds. The entire GX Series of professional grand pianos and the GL Series’ GL-50, GL-40, GL-30 and GL-20 (Canada Market) models are built at the Ryuyo facility. The 5’ GL-10 and 5’2” GL-20 (US market) are the only grand pianos built at Kawai’s Karawan factory in Indonesia. The Karawan plant was designed to replicate perfectly the philosophy, culture and technologies of the famed Ryuyo Factory.
