Hi Barbara, In WSU's Wiedemann Hall (an organ "case" with 3 seconds of reverb, built for the Marcussan organ), we have a Steinway-D, a Bosendorfer 225 (7'4"), and a Neupert 8x8x4 double-manual harpsichord. This is the newer of our two performance halls (seats 420) and is the preferred venue since it looks really nice and has all that reverb to play with (or to hide deficiencies.... :) The Hall is climate controlled at 45% RH and 70 degrees F. so even the harpsichord stays in tune for an inordinately long time (yea!!). The older Miller Concert Hall seats 500, is not climate controlled (at all!) and houses two Steinway-Ds, a Mason & Hamlin CC (currently in the shop for rebuiding), and a Neupert 8x4 single-manual harpsichord. Thanks for initiating this thread, Barbara; its very interesting to hear what various institutions have available. Regards, Alan B. Crane, RPT School of Music Wichita State University alan.crane@wichita.edu
