The Mary Pappert School of Music is now counted
among a highly select group of prestigious schools
of music that are officially designated as “All
Steinway Schools." The 68 new Steinway pianos
are part of the school's performance hall and
rehearsal rooms, as well as the teaching and practice
studios. Piano majors practice in specially designated
rooms that contain grand pianos; other practice
rooms are supplied with studio upright pianos.
A two-manual harpsichord is also available for
practice and recitals.
In addition, by virtue of the quality of guitar
students and size of the guitar program, the Mary
Pappert School of Music is counted among the nations
leading universities offering guitar and electric
bass performance degrees. Duquesne is grateful
for a Fender Musical Instrument Grant that provides
the latest Fender guitar amplifiers, bass amplifiers,
guitars, basses, and sound systems throughout
the music school for student and faculty use.
This grant is renewed each year, and provides
the latest gear for the students of the Mary Pappert
School of Music and designates the school as an
"All Fender Institution".
