Thanks to the introduction of the Cobham Hall and Steinway & Sons partnership, the Kent school is now home to the ‘perfect piano’. This exceptional instrument is now a central feature of one of the country’s most acoustically remarkable venues, famed for its gilded ceiling and world-class sound quality. 

The School is has launched an exciting new Steinway Scholarship, offering talented young musicians the rare opportunity to play on this iconic instrument as part of their regular music studies. Beyond the chance to perform on the Steinway Model B, scholarship recipients will also engage in masterclasses with a prestigious roster of Steinway International Artists, including world-renowned stars such as Lang Lang, Yaoying Yang, Charlie Puth and Hying-ki Joo.

The first of these masterclasses saw Cobham Hall’s music students make a special trip to London’s Steinway Hall, under the expert guidance of Martin Roscoe, one of the UK’s most beloved pianists. The collaboration marks an exciting chapter in the School’s musical legacy, offering unparalleled opportunities for students to develop their craft on one of the most exquisite pianos in the world.

Cobham Hall's Gilt Hall, with its grandeur and exceptional acoustics, is poised to become the backdrop for many unforgettable performances in the near future.
