We received a very special delivery this week!

This Steinway B piano was owned and played by no other than Charles Mingus and is on loan from the Charles Mingus Institute. Purchased in the early to mid 70s, Charles Mingus played and composed with this instrument until he no longer could.

Many thanks to Sue Mingus, "Let My Children Hear Music" / The Charles Mingus Institute, and The Ungaro Family!

We are thrilled to have Arnhold Hall be its new home!
