UT Martin Certified as an Official All-Steinway School

 

UT Martin aspired to be one of only 135 campuses in the world – and one of only three in the state of Tennessee–to become an All-Steinway School and provide students in the Department of Music with the finest pianos in the industry. To receive All-Steinway School status, at least 90 percent of an institution’s pianos must be Steinway-designed pianos. UT Martin raised nearly $700,000 to purchase 25 upright pianos and two grand pianos to earn this great distinction.
