I received an email about the Disklavier remote live concert tonight and I can't find out how to set up or connect my Disklavier to receive this. I've posted the email below, can anyone help me or direct me to instructions on how to receive this?
Thanks,
Brian
At the 2011 Winter NAMM show Yamaha introduced Disklavier Remote Live technology.
Remote Live essentially is a performance consisting of video and audio PLUS MIDI…broadcast from a single location to multiple locations simultaneously…all perfectly synchronized.
Yamaha invites you to join us for a SNEAK PEEK into our next event as we continue testing and perfecting the Remote Live service. This unique display will showcase Jazz Crossings, an upcoming live transcontinental piano concert that will link Internet-connected Disklavier pianos, audiences and performers at The Wild Beast Music Pavilion in Valencia, California, with the Yamaha Piano Salon in midtown Manhattan.
This concert is made possible through the collaboration between California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) and Yamaha Corporation.
Remote Live will be used to bring you the second half of the performance, featuring an ensemble of approximately 15 people. Entitled “Crossings” you can see and hear CalArts? extraordinarily vibrant Latin Jazz Band, directed by pianist-composer, David Roitstein, also Chairperson of CalArts? Jazz Program, in an interdisciplinary collaboration with members of CalArts? School of Theater, directed by Marissa Chibas. The music will be combined with stirring stories about people who have crossed frontiers separating diverse nations and cultures.
You'll enjoy an "inside look" of this concert from the home of someone who is receiving the broadcast, complete with the keys and pedals of that person's Disklavier moving in perfect sync with what is being seen on his laptop. Imagine how fantastic it would be if YOU could receive broadcasts like these in YOUR home on YOUR Disklavier.
DATE: Saturday, April 23
TIME: Remote Live Broadcast starts at approximately 9:15-9:30 PM EDT, 6:15-6:30 PM PDT (Concert starts at 8:30 PM EDT, 5:30 PM PDT)

Given the tremendous consumer demand for Netflix, AppleTV, Roku and similar streaming technologies, Yamaha's pioneering RemoteLive technology provides an exciting, historic, networked, Internet-ready entertainment experience. Once Yamaha completes our testing activities, we are hoping to make this service compatible with the latest model E3 and Mark IV instruments, sometime in 2012.
