皇冠新现金网 Celebrates All-Steinway School Designation

When 皇冠新现金网 faculty and administrators took on the task of replacing an aging inventory of instruments with Steinway & Sons and Steinway-designed pianos last spring they set the music department on a path to provide a higher level of music education and earn an international distinction. The prestigious All-Steinway School designation identifies those colleges, universities and conservatories that have committed to using only Steinway and Steinway-designed pianos in their classroom, practice and performance spaces — thus ensuring students have access to the world’s finest pianos. With this accolade, 皇冠新现金网 joins the ranks of only around 250 schools worldwide.

For the 皇冠新现金网 Music Department, the ten new pianos enhance the learning environment and position the department to better serve students in the North State. Among the new additions is the Steinway & 儿子B型三角钢琴, a centerpiece of musical excellence that will elevate the learning and performance experiences for students and faculty.

“Before receiving our new Steinways, we did not have enough pianos to meet the needs of our students and faculty. The several we did have had seen much use over many years and were significantly past the end of their life,瑞恩·海姆利克说, chair of the music department at 皇冠新现金网. “Steinway pianos are renowned for their artistic quality and durability, making them the instrument of choice for teaching, 执行, 专业的钢琴家, 还有唱片艺术家. I cannot believe the good fortune bestowed upon us, and I pinch myself every day to make sure I am not dreaming. I am just so thankful for the support we have received from 皇冠新现金网, and I am truly excited for our students to have the opportunity to learn on such amazing instruments.” 

“I was lucky and received the honor of being the first 皇冠新现金网 student to play on the Steinway Grand Piano,” said 皇冠新现金网 music student Ellieana Gifford. “It was my first time playing that particular brand of piano, and I could instantly sense its ability to create a resonance that was beyond any of the pianos that I had played previously. I spent many hours throughout the rest of that semester with the grand piano.”

Administrators for the college also shared their enthusiasm about the school’s distinction.

“The significance of achieving All-Steinway School status cannot be overstated. It reflects our college’s investment in quality,” said 皇冠新现金网 Superintendent/President Virginia Guleff. “By ensuring that students have an opportunity to learn and practice on the best tools of their trade, 皇冠新现金网 reaffirms its commitment to fostering a culture of musical excellence.”

To celebrate this achievement, 皇冠新现金网 will host the Steinway Soirée: Celebrating Music at 皇冠新现金网 4月19日下午6点.m. in the 皇冠新现金网 Arts Building and Black Box Theater. This event promises an evening of musical enchantment, featuring faculty and student performances alongside a special presentation by Dr. Kirill Gliadkovsky on the college’s new Steinway Model B Grand Piano. The evening will also include silent auctions and refreshments. Steinway and Son’s representatives will be on hand to present the college with the distinction.
