Piano Purchase Opportunity--Great Deals

Augsburg has had the great benefit of using new Yamaha pianos through the educational loan program created by the Yamaha Corporation of America and implemented locally by Music Connection. This program involves a periodic renewal of the pianos, and now these fine instruments are available for purchase by our associates and the public.

All pianos used in this program will be on sale to faculty, alumni, students, and friends of Augsburg at prices significantly lower than market value. In addition to these, a wide selection of new Yamaha Acoustic, Digital, and Yamaha Disklavier Pianos will also be available. All of the loan program pianos and new pianos are covered by the Yamaha 10 Year Factory Warranty Bond. You will also have an opportunity to examine fine quality, previously owned instruments from Yamaha, and others. Attractive financing and delivery are available on all instruments. Cash, checks and all major credit cards will also be accepted.

There are two ways to view and purchase the selected pianos at Music Connection’s Piano Showroom, 3525 W. 70th St., Edina, in the Brandon Square Center. You may attend the public sale on Sunday June 8th , or to better assist you (and help avoid the crowds), a private appointment can be arranged for Friday June or Saturday June 7 by calling the toll-free appointment number 1-866-920-5397. This is highly recommended for best selection and value. The hours are as follows:

Friday, June 6, 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. By Appointment
Saturday, June 7, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. By Appointment
Sunday, June 8, Noon - 5 p.m. Open to the Public

This special program offers a significant benefit for Augsburg College and you. We ask you to view and consider the purchase of one of these fine pianos, which will assist in perpetuating this program.
