Announcing an All-Steinway Initiative

Students with Newly Donated Piano for Practice Rooms

All-Steinway Schools demonstrate a commitment to excellence by providing their students and faculty the best equipment possible for the study of music. From the practice room to faculty studios to the recital hall, all pianos are designed by Steinway & Sons. Several of our neighbor institutions have been named All-Steinway Schools, including the University of West Florida, the University of Montevallo, the University of Alabama-Birmingham, the University of Mobile, Troy University, and Spring Hill College. In order to receive this prestigious distinction and benefit from the excellence that Steinway-designed pianos have to offer, the University of South Alabama has announced an All-Steinway School Initiative. Any amount given to the Steinway Initiative is appreciated and makes an impact. We also have options for individuals to leave a legacy or honor/memorialize a loved one by naming a piano, with donations ranging from $14,700 to $114,300. 
 
The pianos currently in the practice rooms, piano studios, vocal studios, rehearsal rooms, and classrooms have been serving the students and faculty for many years, some for more than 50 years, and have moved beyond the point where they can provide consistently excellent, quality results to student and faculty musicians.
 
While all gifts are welcome, the current inventory and needs are as follows:
 
PRACTICE ROOMS
Needs: One (1) Steinway 鈥淢鈥 five-foot-seven-inch grand piano and two (2) Steinway 鈥淜52鈥 upright pianos and one (1) Steinway-designed Boston 50鈥 Studio piano.
