We're looking for a piano, a piano, a piano, we're looking for a p-i-a-n-o!
We have been offered a model-B Bechstein Grand piano by a church in Durham where it is now surplus to their requirements. The keyboard action needs an overhaul and minor adjustments making. Once installed we can present solo piano recitals again.
The cost of the work and having it moved from Durham to Marske will be between £1800 and £2000. We hope to have the instrument restored and delivered in time for the final concert of the summer in June.
