This piano was crafted at the Steinway factory in New York, a facility established in 1853. Steinway’s Model D concert grand underwent continuous changes in design, reaching its final pinnacle of success around 1900.

These designs came from Steinway's own intuition, with feedback from the great world-class pianists that played their instruments. Crafting the piano involved meticulous attention to detail. It represents the pinnacle of piano design. The restoration at Farley's House of Pianos faithfully copied every aspect of the maker’s intentions. Every moving part in the piano was replaced including the soundboard and action components.

Season tickets are $250 for seven concerts. Individual tickets are $50 at the door or $45 in advance, $10 student tickets are available online only. Purchase tickets online at salonpianoseries.org or in person at Farley’s House of Pianos. Service fees apply.
