More Information
Musically it is in general good condition, albeit needing a tune and with occasional notes requiring individual attention mechnically. It has been long-serving in the school chapel and as a result has scuffs and marks on the body. The stool has two minor rips. Attached are two pictures of the piano interior. By and large the instrument plays well and has an impressive sonorous sound.
It is approximately 4 feet wide, 3 feet high and 6 feet long.
