Description: | | On Sunday, January 19, 2020, at 2 p.m., USF Courtesy Steinway-Artist-in-Residence Rebecca Penneys will debut a special Steinway & Sons Model D Black Walnut Concert Grand piano at the
USF School of Music Concert Hall.
Donated to the school by an anonymous donor in 2017 and recently restored with a generous $35,000 gift from Penneys herself, the piano will be looking and sounding its best when it takes the
stage for its first USF performance.
In addition to performing on the piano, Penneys will also make comments about the music and the instrument, which features a walnut case of striking brown color. It has been restored to a like-new
condition by the Music Gallery of Clearwater, the exclusive Steinway dealer of Tampa Bay.
This newly acquired unique Steinway instrument matches USF’s commitment to trusting the Steinway brand. In 2011, the USF School of Music became a prestigious All-Steinway School, giving USF
faculty and students the opportunity to create music from practice room to stage on exclusively Steinway & Sons pianos
You are invited to join the College of The Arts for this special event. Tickets are $5 for students, $10
