Come meet our new piano! - a 92-key (down to a Low F!) 1953 Bösendorfer 7’4” Model 225, in polished ebony, made of spruce in Vienna. (This model is known for its incredible range of tone, because of a huge resonance board and additional strings). Through a generous donation, sfSound's MOSSWOOD SOUND SERIES has received this lovely instrument. To welcome the piano to its new home, we present an evening of short works performed by local pianists.

All proceeds go to the ~$2,000 cost for moving, installation, tuning, and instrument insurance. Alternatively, (or if you are unable to attend the concert) you can make a tax-deductible donation through sfSound's DONATION PAGE.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
