and that if the school buys Steinways it will be just the second historically black college to have the honor of playing on such magical instruments. Perhaps Steinway could donate the pianos for such a historic occasion.

Some of the best Steinways are decades-old ones that have been rebuilt at much less cost than making them new. And there’s a certain panache about having an actual instrument that served, say, Liberace. Or Fats Waller.

Bowie State officials countered that their current pianos were substandard, that listeners could hear the difference in good vs. bad pianos... Well, if that is the case, they deserve to have Bösendorfers.
