Baldwin SD6 for sale

[tompiano]

It's not my decision to sell....it's the concert promoters. We are getting 
too many occasions with  Steinway endorsed artists who are demanding only to 
play a Steinway. Now a donor has surfaced ( out of nowhere) and all of a 
sudden, the theater is getting a new piano. One of the artists who is 
scheduled to play will be helping out with the selection process.
If all things were the same, we would be just as happy with the Baldwin. It 
has been a wonderful instrument to work with. There have been many of 
concerts when tears in my eyes and goose bumps on my back overwhelmed me. 
I'm now trying to find a way to possibly purchase it for myself.
