About this fundraiser

A committee made up of students, alumni, accompanists and music teachers explored, played and studied many high quality grand pianos this summer. After much discussion, this group has recommended the purchase of the Yamaha S6X for our PAC.

The Waunakee has continually committed to providing students and community members with the latest technology. whether it's software, hardware, tools or instruments, in each vocation, we want our students to work with the tools that they will experience in their lives after high school. What pianos do professional musicians use or do they play or sing along with in their music-making? The Yamaha S6X is a professional level instrument with hand made precision-crafted elements that set it apart, while keeping it more affordable for schools and other institutions.

Waunakee High School senior and pianist, Wilson Kierce, had this to say about the instrument: "I'm confident this piano is the right one for our space. The quality is unmatched, and I simply haven't played a piano on its level before." Copy this link to watch Wilson jam on the piano https://shorturl.at/ejmEY

Help us celebrate the legacy of music in our schools with your donation to this concert grand piano that will resonate for years to come. All donations will be recognized on a plaque in our Performing Arts Center and recognized in our May concert programs.
