A very special moment from the school, taking the piano count to near 120. Three Model Bs and one Model D Steinway & Sons (Hamburg). Piano Technician

PaintedPostDave 500 Post Club Member Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 666 Upstate New York	The third pic showed a piano being wheeled in that might have been a wee bit small for a D. Thanks to Furtwangler, it makes sense now, except for the cost using American Steinway prices (satin ebony): 3*$132,000+$85,000 = $481,000. Tuition increase?

The Model Bs will be put into piano teaching rooms that all piano staff will get to teach on them in rotation. Woodog, how did you guess it was Chetham's? For those that don't know, the school is a specialist music school that offers first-class music tuition to those aged between 8 and 18, whilst offering a mainstream academic education alongside.
