CHAPTER 5:
Accompaniment Styles
Selecting Accompaniment Styles
The Clavinova has a wide variety of musical “styles” that you can use for simple
percussion accompaniment, or as the basis of a fully orchestrated accompaniment
— including bass and rhythm parts — using the Auto Accompaniment feature (page
57). There is also a selection of “Pianist” styles that let you play with piano
accompaniment when you activate the Auto Accompaniment.
Selecting a Style
Style Types
• Rhythm styles: 134
• Pianist styles: 36
• Custom styles: 4
* For information on the styles, see the Style List on page 10 in the Data
List.
* The Clavinova’s styles are divided into eleven groups, corresponding to
the eleven STYLE buttons on the panel.
* The PIANIST styles and Guitar Serenade in the WALTZ style group do
not include drum sounds. Use the Auto Accompaniment (page 58) to
play these styles.

Disk and Custom Styles
The [DISK/CUSTOM] button lets you use
styles on optional Style File Disks (page
86) or your original styles (page 73) .
Select the desired style group by pressing the appropriate STYLE
button.
The corresponding STYLE SELECT display appears.
The last selected style in each group
can be retained in memory, even after
turning off the power, when the Backup
function (page 152) is set to ON.
When the power is turned on, the
60’sGtrPop style is automatically
selected. However, if the Backup
function (page 152) is set to ON, the
last selected style will be selected
instead.
Accompaniment styles cannot be
selected in the Song Play mode page
93.
