Steinway & Sons announces an upcoming “Steinway Comes to Vermont” festival featuring free piano presentations, musical performances, and a three-day sales event offering significantly reduced prices on Steinway and Steinway-designed Boston and Essex pianos. The Steinway Comes to Vermont event will be held at Vermont College of Fine Arts in Montpelier Thursday, November 1 through Sunday, November 4. A portion of proceeds from piano sales will benefit Vermont College of Fine Arts and Monteverdi Music School.
Steinway & Sons is one of the most renowned musical names in American history. Since 1853, the company has dedicated itself to making nothing short of the finest pianos in the world, which is why today, Steinway is the choice of nine out of ten concert artists, and it is the preferred piano of countless musicians, professional and amateur, throughout the world.
