Rockley Family Foundation Sale

-
Duke University's Music Department is working in conjunction with the Rockley Family Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting music education. Musical instruments provided to music departments or otherwise made available will be sold at a significant discount from manufacturer retail pricing through this innovative program, providing valuable resources for music students.

A large selection of grands, baby grands, digital player grands, vertical (upright) pianos, digital pianos, violins, violas, and cellos will be available. This event will feature starter- to professional-level instruments from such renowned makers as Steinway & Sons, Yamaha, Seiler, Knabe, Roland, Italia Fine Violins, and many others. Most instruments are less than one year old, include a 5-10 year service contract, are tuned, and ready to go. Delivery and special no-interest financing will be available on site. Moreover, in most cases, a substantial portion of your purchase is considered a charitable contribution to the Rockley Family Foundation and may be tax-deductible.

By Appointment: You are invited to attend a special private sale on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, October 9-11, along with our faculty and staff. This will give you an opportunity to purchase with priority in selection and price reductions. To secure a time, call 919-646-8485 or click the Schedule an Appointment button. You may also attend the final sale day on Saturday, October 11, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.-no appointment required.

This event will be held on campus in Scharf Hall at the K Center, 107 Whitford Drive, Durham, NC 27708. Parking is available adjacent to the building. Virtual appointments via Zoom are also available if needed.

In a time when creative solutions are required to maintain a properly equipped music program, the continuation of this initiative is important to us in our efforts to further education in the arts. We invite you to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
