Note by Note Movie – Sun Prairie HS

The Steinway Piano Society presents Note By Note: The Making of Steinway L1037 on Wednesday, February 17 at the Sun Prairie High School Auditorium.
A solo performance on a Steinway grand will follow the film.
The feature-length independent film follows the creation of a Steinway concert grand from forest floor to concert hall. The film explores the relationship between musician and instrument, chronicles the manufacturing process and illustrates what makes each Steinway unique in this age of mass production. “L1037″ refers to the case number of the particular Steinway the producers followed during the twelve months it took to build it.
Note by Note is a loving celebration of not just craftsmanship, but of a dying breed of person who is deeply connected to working by hand.
Admission is free. Donations will be accepted that night for The Steinway Project. The Steinway Project is a committee of representatives from Sun Prairie’s performing arts organizations, school parents, local piano teachers and area arts supports who are raising funds to purchase and maintain a new Steinway ‘D’ Concert Grand Piano for the Performing Arts Center in the new Sun Prairie High School.
