Greetings!
We hope that you had a great summer!  What?  You say that summer just started a couple of weeks ago?  Well, turn on the AC and enjoy playing your piano.  Our summer is heating up too, with lots kids starting their piano lessons, and folks back from vacation and ready to realize their dream of learning to play.  We are looking forward to seeing you at our September concert at the end of the month - or just drop by to see what's new!

Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to play
Vladimir
Horowitz's Steinway & Sons
9-foot
concert grand piano.

This beautiful Steinway was built in 1941 in N.Y. City.  It was Horowitz's personal piano and played on concert stages and in recording studios around the world, including the famous
1986 Moscow Concert, and, of course,
 Carnegie Hall.
For a very limited time, September 19 through October 6, 2010, amateur pianists, students, and teachers are invited to come and play this piano.  You or your child will be presented with a certificate  commemorating your performance. 
Call (858)586-7000 to make your appointment today - and
don't forget to bring your camera!



Appointments to play the Horowitz piano are limited!
