Musical Equipment

Glenn Gould Studio Pianos
Two New York Steinway 9 foot Model D concert grand pianos are available for concert and recording projects. Our 1993 Steinway ("Bertha") was chosen for Glenn Gould Studio by noted Canadian pianist Louis Lortie from the Steinway factory in New York City.

The 1968 Steinway ("Oliver") was purchased in the early 1970s, and was moved from location to location for various CBC concerts and recordings. It was known as "the new Steinway", however since 1992, the piano's permanent home has been Glenn Gould Studio, and was renamed "Oliver".

The two pianos are kept in excellent condition through regular overhauls and tunings, and provide artists a choice in tonal quality and action.

Our regular piano technician is Wayne Chen. Ted Campbell and Mark DeCourt are our alternate technicians.

Other instruments available:
Hammond B3 organ
Yamaha Stage Custom 5 piece drum set (black)
Ampeg BA600/210 bass combo amp
Fender Twin Guitar Amp
Fender Rhodes
Celeste
Various percussion instruments
