The Music Program of Eastern University has had the use of new first-class pianos on a no cost basis for the 2023-2024 year. This ongoing arrangement is provided through a partnership with the Rockley Family Foundation, recognized by the I.R.S. as a 501(c)(3) organization.* These instruments, instruments provided to other institutions and instruments made otherwise available, will be sold to perpetuate this valuable program.

A selection of grands, baby grands, digital player grands, vertical (upright) pianos and digital pianos, will be available from such famous makers as Yamaha, Bösendorfer, Estonia, Cunningham, Clavinova, with a discrete selection of used Steinway & Sons and many others. Most instruments are less than one-year old, include a warranty, are tuned, and ready to go. Delivery and special no-interest financing is available on site.

There are two ways to view and purchase:

BY APPOINTMENT: You are invited to attend a special private-sale on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, November 21-23, along with our faculty and staff. This will give you an opportunity to purchase with priority in selection and price reductions. To secure a private appointment time call: (610) 295-9677

Due to on campus construction, this year’s event will be held OFF CAMPUS at Cunningham Piano, 198 Allendale Road, King of Prussia, PA 19406. For directions and event details (including “virtual appointment” options) please call or visit: www.RockleyFamilyFoundation.org/Eastern

In a time where creative solutions are needed to maintain a properly equipped music program, the continuation of this loan program is vital to us in our efforts to further education in the arts. We invite you to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
